T-Bone Crash Verdict
Trial attorneys Jason P. Fowler and Ryan K. Kahl secured more than $4.8 million for our client who suffered lower back injuries after being T-boned by a driver who failed to stop at a red light in Lancaster, CA.
Following the collision, our client went to urgent care, where she complained of neck and arm pain. Approximately a week after the collision, her lower back began to hurt with pain going into her left leg. The pain in her neck and arm resolved, but the pain in her lower back never did.
Although the defense admitted liability, they never took responsibility for the effect the crash had on our client. Rather, throughout the entire case, including trial, the defense claimed that the only injury the plaintiff suffered was a sprain/strain of her lower back. They also argued that any continuing problems were due to her preexisting degenerative condition. Given the defense’s strategy of downplaying our client’s injuries, the most the defendant’s insurance carrier, Infinity Insurance, ever offered to settle the case was $3,300.
The verdict includes $78,000 in past economic losses, $1,200,000 in future economic losses, $350,000 in past non-economic damages, and $3,200,000 in future non-economic damages.
