The impact destroyed our clients' home, their personal belongings, and killed two of their pets causing our clients PTSD and psychological trauma. Our team was able to successfully negotiate a settlement in the amount of $200,000 with the trucking company's insurer, ensuring that all medical bills and legal obligations were satisfied.
