$3 Million
Wrongful Death Truck Accident Settlement
Case Details
Thomas Law Offices secured a $3 million settlement on behalf of the Estate of a client who was killed in a crash involving an oversize/overweight crane load.
Our client was stopped in the breakdown lane when they were struck by a tractor-trailer transporting a large crawler crane. According to the claim, the crane load extended beyond the trailer and into the breakdown lane. Our client died at the scene.
Thomas Law Offices alleged that the transport of the crane was unsafe, improperly permitted, and lacked the safety precautions required for an oversize/overweight load
The $3 million settlement resolved the Estate’s claims against the transport company and driver.
“This case is about accountability for a preventable death,” said attorney Nick Haynes of Thomas Law Offices. “The family has shown tremendous strength throughout this process. While no amount of money can replace a loved one, this settlement is an important step toward accountability.”
Past results do not guarantee or predict a similar outcome in future cases.
