$150,000 Settlement for Pedestrian Wrongful Death

$150,000 awarded to a 70-year-old man, who was run over by a young woman who was speeding in her father’s car while using her cellphone and failed to see the plaintiff crossing at the crosswalk. The victim suffered severe head injuries and died later that day of an intracranial hemorrhage. The insurance company tendered their $100,000 policy and the defendant and her father paid an additional $50,000 out of their personal assets to resolve the matter.
