Our client was lawfully traveling southbound on a two-lane public road. The Defendant, operating a company vehicle in the opposite direction, attempted to pass a vehicle, crossed the centerline, and entered into our client’s lane of travel. The Defendant’s vehicle hit our client’s vehicle head-on, killing our client.

Our lawyers argued the Defendant was on his cell phone at the time of his pass and made a claim for punitive damages. A multi-million dollar settlement was reached before trial.
