$900k Settlement for a T-Bone Collision

Our client was the driver of a vehicle parked on the right side in the right lane of Laurel Street in Lakeside, California. At that time, the defendant operating a vehicle tried to merge into the lane of our client and collided with the right side of our client’s vehicle. As a result of this collision, our client’s vehicle sustained extensive right-side damage. In addition, their vehicle was totaled.

The defendant breached their statutory duty when they acted unreasonably, carelessly, recklessly, and negligently under the circumstances, thereby forcefully causing this T-bone collision.

The defendant’s failure to keep a proper lookout for conditions of the road violated statutes and resulted in the collision. Per the supportive documentation, our client was obeying all laws at the time of the crash and was acting reasonably under the circumstances, consequently alleviating any comparative negligence issues. Based on the evidence and the provided documentation, it was abundantly clear that liability solely rested with the defendant. Liability was indisputable in this case.
