Person A was delivering an RV camper through Wyoming when a semi-truck passing at high speed created a wind gust that caused the RV to tip off the roadway. After pulling over and beginning recovery efforts with authorities, a second semi-truck lost control on the mountain and crashed directly into Person A’s truck and RV camper, pinning him between the vehicles. Person A sustained 13 fractured ribs and a head laceration requiring 10 stitches, requiring hospitalization and making him unable to work for at least four weeks.

How We Recovered $919,000 in a Commercial Motor Vehicle Accident

Sean Olson handled this complex commercial motor vehicle accident case, which required tracking down an out-of-state trucking company to pursue liability. Our legal team litigated the case aggressively all the way to the eve of trial, holding the negligent semi-truck driver and company accountable for their reckless driving. The case ultimately settled for $919,000, ensuring Person A received fair compensation for his severe injuries and lost wages.
