Large Settlement Secured for Injured Dairy Farm Worker

VB Attorneys is pleased to announce a significant settlement on behalf of a former employee of Oak Farms, a Dallas-based dairy company. Our client sustained a complex shoulder injury while performing his duties, leading to prolonged medical treatment and residual nerve damage.

The Incident

On January 20th, 2022, our client was loading a pallet onto a trailer using an unauthorized ramp with a steep incline. During the process, the pallet wheels became stuck, causing his arm to forcefully twist above his head. Despite initial misdiagnosis and delayed specialist care, our client persisted in seeking proper medical attention. He ultimately underwent surgery and physical therapy to combat lingering nerve damage. 

Employers bear a fundamental responsibility to ensure the well-being of their employees, and Oak Farm’s negligence in this regard had severe consequences for our client. 

The Outcome

The specific details of the settlement remain confidential; however, our personal injury team was able to secure a substantial settlement for our client. Great work to Vuk, Job, Ro, and Lauren on this case.
