A Flagler County jury returned an $8.638 million verdict in favor of a commercial truck driver who suffered catastrophic injuries after a tractor-trailer lost control and caused his box truck to roll multiple times.

Despite clear dash cam footage of the crash and a rejected $2 million policy-limits demand, the defense initially offered just $525,000 before ultimately admitting liability two weeks before trial.

The Plaintiff sustained life-altering injuries including a cervical fusion, spinal fracture, torn ACL, shoulder injuries, head trauma, and permanent scarring, resulting in extensive medical treatment, ongoing pain, and loss of enjoyment of life.

CaseMetrix Subscribers, Curry G. Pajcic, Janeen M. Mira and Elizabeth T. Cardenas, represented the Plaintiff in this case.
