Our truck wreck attorney team resolved a case for a client after a four-year fight with the insurance company lawyers. Our client was a backseat passenger in a vehicle that was in a truck wreck with an 18-wheeler that rolled through a stop sign from a side road. He was coming from an oil and gas patch and entering the highway that our client and his colleagues were traveling. Because he pulled out suddenly, there was no time to stop before the collision. Our client suffered PTSD and neck and back injuries as a result of the truck wreck. His income was impacted by the medical conditions so we hired an expert economist to substantiate the claims. In litigation, it was discovered the truck driver had a lengthy criminal history and history of driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol. The trucking company was a fly by night operation that would put anyone behind the wheel. The trucking company owner and truck driver refused to cooperate with their own lawyers hired by the insurance company causing years of delays in litigation. We pressed on and were able to resolve the claim for a significant and confidential sum.
