Settlement Reached in Modesto Car Accident Case: $996,658.90 Following Red Light Collision Involving DUI Driver
Compensation amount
$996,658.90
Silva Injury Law secured a settlement of $996,658.90 for client Marcos M. following a serious car accident in Modesto, CA, where the defendant ran a red light while under the influence of alcohol in his work vehicle, striking our client. Following the accident, Marcos underwent a lumbar disc decompression and cervical fusion. We took an aggressive approach in this case by quickly deposing the defendant, who admitted to consuming alcohol while on the job. This strategic move allowed us to effectively serve a demand for the insurance policy limits and seek punitive damages against the driver and his employer. The defense ultimately agreed to pay the policy limits shortly thereafter.
