$14.3 million settlement, following jury selection, against a large U.S. trucking company, for a 49-year-old New York marketing executive who was visiting her son at school and attempting to cross the street in Minneapolis. She was struck by an 18-wheeler and thrown 42 feet. She suffered a shoulder dislocation, a broken leg that required surgical repair, and back and neck injuries. However, her most serious injury was a skull fracture, with intracranial bleeding, that left her with a severe brain injury, unable to work, and requiring full-time care. The trucking company and its driver strongly disputed liability, claiming that our client was crossing outside of a crosswalk and against the light. Our lawyers, with the assistance of local counsel, interviewed police officers, conducted multiple depositions, accessed the truck’s black-box data, and retained numerous additional experts, including a biomechanical engineer and an accident reconstructionist. Collectively, we were able to prove that the driver was texting and distracted, or he would have been able to avoid the accident.
