The Dawson Law Group has obtained a $2.3 million policy-limits settlement for a commercial truck driver seriously injured in a multi-vehicle crash in Eastern Oregon. The settlement represents the maximum available insurance compensation and resolves a case involving contested liability and complex insurance coverage issues.
The accident occurred when an 18-wheeler jackknifed on an Eastern Oregon highway, prompting multiple trucks including the plaintiff's vehicle to stop and check on the disabled truck. As traffic slowed, a third semi-truck lost control and crashed into the disabled vehicle, triggering a chain-reaction impact that caused serious injuries to Dawson Law Group's client.
Attorney Ben Larson noted that the civil justice system often serves as the primary mechanism for holding trucking companies accountable and securing compensation for injuries, pain, suffering, and life disruptions. The firm conducted a thorough investigation of the crash, working with experts to analyze the sequence of events, vehicle positions, and safety practices that contributed to the collision.
