A rear-end collision and neck surgery
The officer suffered neck and lower-back injuries when the commercial truck struck her car. Her treatment included diagnostic testing and neck decompression surgery.
She initially tried to resolve her claim directly with the company, but its offer did not resolve the dispute.
Testing the driver’s brake-failure explanation
Brian filed the lawsuit against Waste Management of Texas in Galveston County District Court. The truck driver claimed that brake failure caused the collision.
Through depositions and written discovery, Brian developed evidence contradicting that explanation.
A confidential settlement before trial
Brian resolved the officer’s case through a confidential settlement shortly before trial.
