Truck Accident on Interstate 16

Written by Troy Marsh |

While riding as a passenger in a work van, my client suffered neck and back injuries when a fully loaded tractor-trailer slammed into the rear of the vehicle on Interstate 16, launching the van off the interstate, down an embankment, up a steep incline, over a fence, and into a plowed field. The tractor-trailer driver fell asleep at the wheel because of sleep deprivation. My client’s medical bills exceeded $100,000, and she was left with disfiguring surgical scars. After I filed suit and litigated against an Atlanta defense firm for over a year, the tractor-trailer company’s insurance company decided to settle at mediation for an amount that compensated my client for her losses.

Results vary. Every case is different. Past outcomes do not guarantee future results.
