Cervical Spine Settlement

Cervical Spine Settlement

We represented a certified electrician who sustained massive back injuries in a wreck caused by the driver of a plumbing company’s van that ran a red light.

Our client, who was thirty-six at the time, underwent several years of conservative treatment, but ultimately needed a discectomy at C4-5. The next year, a fusion at C6-7 was required. Our client can no longer be totally pain-free and can no longer do electrical work.

While the defendants argued our client had pre-existing conditions, after two days of testimony in a jury trial, the defendants settled for the $2.5 million we requested.
