$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, who was operating a car, attempted to merge into our client’s lane. However, the accused driver collided with the right side of our client’s car. This serious T-bone crash in San Diego County caused extensive side damage to the right side of our client’s vehicle. The plaintiff had to leave their totaled car on the street.

Therefore, the defendant breached their legal duty when they acted unreasonably, carelessly, recklessly, and negligently under the circumstances, thereby forcibly causing this T-bone crash at Lakeside, San Diego County. In addition to the damage to the car, the victim suffered multiple serious injuries from the sudden impact. After receiving medical attention, the plaintiff was diagnosed with severe back problems. The most significant health issues our client faced were lumbar pain, neck stiffness, migraines, leg numbness, and chronic lower back pain

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.
