$2.1M Settlement for a Car Accident

Our client was traveling northbound on Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. An individual began a U-Turn directly in front of our client and was hit on the left side.

The individual who hit our client had just exited SR-99 northbound. Our client and the passengers in his car received damages such as lower back pain, headaches, neck pain, and trouble sleeping.

Liability was indisputable in this case. The defendant admitted in the deposition to negotiating an illegal U-Turn, which precipitated and solely caused the significant collision with our client’s vehicle. Any attempt at alleging comparative fault on behalf of our client was misguided, as a data download of our client’s vehicle’s Electronic Data Recorder (“EDR”) showed our client was driving at or below the speed limit for the entire 5 seconds before the collision.
