Green v. Western Textiles Trucking, Inc. (2004)

Recovery: $300,000.00

This claim arose when a tractor trailer changed lanes and came over on a convertible Mazda Miata on a four (4) lane interstate highway. The impact caused the Miata to run off of the highway, up an embankment and become airborne. The collision caused severe lacerations to our client’s face, a brain injury, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and disabling Tinnitus. The defense denied liability and alleged that Ms. Green was contributorily negligent in causing the crash, and as a result expert witnesses were a critical part of the liability workup. Another significant portion of the case involved the issue of whether our client could return to work, as she was the director of employee health and fitness at the headquarters of the Sara Lee Corporation. We spent many hours working with our experts and our client’s supervisors and co-workers to demonstrate the physical demands of our client’s job and her inability to perform her routine job duties after her injuries.
