Settlement - $1,000,000 Settlement in Motor Vehicle Accident

Case Summary:

Attorney David Shay and his dedicated team successfully secured a substantial settlement following a devastating motorcycle collision caused by the defendant's violation.

Facts of the Case:

Our client was riding his motorcycle northbound on I-5 at approximately 55 miles per hour in the number two lane. Ahead of him, the defendant was driving a DODGE RAM at approximately 70 miles per hour, also in the number two lane. The defendant was hauling multiple metal containers in the bed of the truck, and while traveling at this speed, several containers became dislodged and fell into the roadway. Our plantiff struck the detached containers with his motorcycle, resulting in severe injuries.

Treatment:

As a result of the collision, our client required multiple surgeries to his ankle, knee, and back, with over $400,000 in past medical care. Medical experts have recommended a pain stimulator to manage his ongoing symptoms.

Legal Strategy:

Our legal team conducted a thorough investigation, gathering compelling evidence that demonstrated the defendant's negligence in securing the metal containers and the severe injuries sustained by our client. We emphasized the medical treatments required and the profound effect the injuries had on our client, leading to a successful negotiation of the settlement.

Pursuing Justice:

We are dedicated to ensuring our client received the compensation they deserve for medical expenses, pain and suffering, loss of consortium, and the long-term impact of the accident. Our strategic legal approach and unwavering commitment to our clients were instrumental in achieving justice for them.
