At Foster Wallace Personal Injury Lawyers, we recently secured a $262,500 settlement for our client, who was injured in a devastating trucking collision in Cape Girardeau, Missouri.
The Accident: A Violent Truck Crash on I-55
On June 28, 2024, our client was lawfully driving southbound on Interstate 55 near LP 55 when a negligent truck driver caused a high-impact collision. Our client had no opportunity to avoid the crash, which was entirely the result of the truck driver’s carelessness.
Injuries and Recovery
Our client sustained multiple injuries from the wreck, including:
✔ Neck pain
✔ Right shoulder and shoulder blade pain
✔ Rib cage and abdominal trauma
✔ Back pain
✔ Right hip pain
She endured weeks of medical treatment, diagnostic testing, and physical therapy to recover from her injuries. Her recovery was long and difficult, but she remained resilient and committed to regaining her health.
Settlement and Case Resolution
Despite initial resistance from the trucking company’s insurance carrier, our firm aggressively pursued justice for our client. After thorough investigation and strategic negotiation, we achieved a $262,500 settlement that fairly compensated her for medical expenses, pain and suffering, and the disruption to her daily life.
Our client is incredibly grateful for the outcome and the support she received during this challenging time.
