$250,000 Settlement for Client Injured in Tractor Trailer Crash
Case Type: Personal Injury - Vehicle Accident
After not receiving a settlement offer from a commercial trucking insurance company that took a “non-pay” posture, Cordisco & Saile advised our client to file a lawsuit in Philadelphia County against a tractor trailer driver and the truck company as a result of a crash that occurred on the New Jersey Turnpike.
The tractor trailer operator failed to maintain control of his truck and lost control, tipping over onto its side while traveling on the New Jersey Turnpike.
Our client suffered a multitude of soft-tissue injuries resulting in multiple epidural steroid injections to her neck, back, and left shoulder, which had a torn rotator cuff. Most importantly, the thoracic spine (mid-back) suffered disc herniations due to the severe impact in this crash, as well as a severe traumatic brain injury which was caused by the sudden whiplash-type impact of this crash.
Cordisco & Saile fought for a fair settlement and with litigation, settled the case for $250,000.
