    Case Results

    We obtained a $6,995,500 settlement for our client and her two children. Our client’s spouse
    was killed while working in a construction zone on Interstate 75 in East Tennessee. The driver
    of a big-rig truck at night failed to slow down and struck our client’s spouse, as well as his
    construction vehicle and a highway patrol vehicle. We brought suit against the driver and his
    employer in Federal Court, ultimately reaching a settlement before trial.

    Awarded: $6,995,500

    Other party’s insurance company claimed that injuries were sustained prior to accident, but Keith Williams fought those claims and our client was awarded a confidential settlement. The fact that Keith Williams and his associate attorneys are highly regarded trial attorneys, and the fact that we were immediately willing to begin taking depositions and contacting accident specialist to testify on our client’s behalf, made the trucking companies’ insurance carrier lawyers understand that we were perfectly willing and able to try our client’s case in court in front of a jury. In the weeks leading up to the trial, the insurance company made several offers, all of which we and our client denied as they were too low to reimburse her for her injuries, totalled car, and pain and suffering. Finally, at the proverbial “12th hour” before the trial, the insurance company came to the table with an offer our client accepted. This offer was made with the stipulation that is remain “Confidential” so we are not allowed to tell the amount or the company involved in the accident. Our client was satisfied with the outcome and relieved that he did not have to relive the ordeal in court.

    Awarded: Confidential

    $591,118 was awarded to a McMinnville, Tennessee woman after a trial. The Warren County woman sustained an  injury to her shoulder resulting to damage to her brachial plexus and a winged scapula in an accident for which she was not at fault.  These injuries impacted her ability to her her job.   She also received future medical benefits for life.

    Awarded: $591,118

    Truck Accident Frequently Asked Questions

    The injured victim has the right to sue in the event of a personal injury case.  If the victim dies in the crash then that would be a Wrongful Death case under Tennessee Law and the Next of Kin would have the cause of action, claim or right to bring a lawsuit against the at fault truck driver and trucking company.

    49 C.F.R. § 392.22 requires that when a commercial motor vehicle stops on a highway or shoulder, the driver must active hazard warning signal flashers, and within ten minutes must place either flares or bidirectional reflective triangles. If the vehicle is stopped within 500 feet of a curve, hillcrest or other view obstruction, warning devices must be places so as to provide ample warning. This regulation supports liability, and occasionally even punitive damages, when a motorist crashes into a stopped tractor trailer in poor visibility conditions.

    Violation of this regulation has generally resuled in a finding of negligence per se and can contribute significantly to punitive damages in awards.
