Commercial Vehicle in Jackson County, GA
Injury: Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), neck pain, knee pain
Case Summary: Our client was stopped at a stop sign behind a garbage truck when the garbage truck reversed into her vehicle. The force of the impact caused the rear of the truck to crash through the windshield. The commercial driver admitted he was backing up to allow another truck to make a wide turn and was cited for causing the collision.
As a result, our client suffered physical injuries including neck and knee pain, as well as significant emotional trauma and PTSD. We established clear fault and presented evidence of both physical and psychological harm caused by the crash.
The case resolved pre suit for $125,000, holding the commercial operator accountable and compensating our client for her injuries without unnecessary delay.
