Houston Truck - Pedestrian Lawsuit Settles; Delivery truck hits Houston resident; neck injury; cervical fusion surgery

A security guard was crossing the street in downtown Houston, Texas, when a delivery truck struck her, causing her to fall to the ground.  The security guard sustained many injuries, but the worst injury was to her neck.  She underwent a neck fusion surgery because of the injuries she suffered in this truck accident.

The delivery company and their insurance carrier denied the security guard's claim.  After that, she hired Vujasinovic & Beckcom.  VB law firm filed the security guard's truck accident lawsuit in Harris County, Texas.  The firm took several depositions and secured documentation proving the accident was the delivery company driver's fault.  VB lawyers also obtained all of the security guard's medical and lost wage records, and hired experts proving her injuries and wage loss.

Less than a year after the accident, VB lawyers negotiated the case and obtained a total payment of $475,000.  Attorneys' fees are $190,000, and litigation expenses are $16,000.

Awarded: $475,000 settlement; $190,000 attorney fee; $16,000 expenses
