A Kansas City man was stopped near Antioch Road and 76th Street when the brakes failed on a commercial box truck traveling downhill. The truck was unable to stop and rear-ended his vehicle.
The truck crash left our client with a herniated disc in his neck. His spine injury was serious enough that he ultimately needed a total disc replacement at the C5-C6 level.
The insurance company initially offered $136,000 to settle the claim. We continued pursuing fair compensation that reflected the seriousness of our client’s injury, the surgery he required, and the impact the crash had on his life.
“An accident with a large commercial truck is devastating,” said the case’s lead attorney, Tanner Hewlette. “That’s why we made sure this client received a significantly higher settlement than originally offered.”
In the end, our client received a $325,000 settlement for a KCK truck crash, more than doubling the insurance company’s original offer.
