This was a high-speed motor vehicle collision involving an unprotected left turn that resulted in a near head-on crash at approximately 55–60 miles per hour. The plaintiff sustained severe injuries, including traumatic brain injury and cervical and lumbar spine injuries. Through extensive discovery, depositions, and expert testimony, liability was established.
The case resolved for $5,000,000, representing the full available insurance coverage, including a $1 million primary policy and a $4 million excess policy. This matter demonstrates the firm’s ability to pursue and recover full policy limits in catastrophic injury cases across California.
