Pipeline Company Pays $6 Million After Devastating Rear-End Crash

When a routine drive turned into a devastating crash, VB Attorneys stepped in to hold the responsible parties accountable. Our clients were traveling in a Ford Bronco when they were violently rear-ended by a large pickup truck, which was later determined to be owned by a major pipeline company. The force of the impact caused a secondary collision with another vehicle. The consequences of the crash were life-altering for our clients, leading to extensive legal action to secure justice.

Establishing Liability Against a Corporate Defendant

From the outset, our team focused on proving that the pipeline company and its driver were responsible for the collision. Through extensive investigation, including accident reconstruction analysis and vehicle data downloads, we demonstrated that the pipeline company’s truck caused the high-speed rear-end crash. The data revealed that our clients endured severe impact forces, while the secondary collision resulted in significantly lower impact forces for the other driver.

After filing suit, we uncovered further evidence linking the company to the vehicle involved. The pipeline company initially attempted to deflect responsibility, but our attorneys refused to let them escape liability. We aggressively pursued the case, ensuring that all responsible parties were held accountable.

Maximizing Compensation for Our Clients

With the overwhelming evidence in our client’s favor, we presented a strong case for damages. Our team submitted a demand, compelling the defendant’s insurance carrier to acknowledge the full extent of their exposure. Facing the risk of trial, the defense ultimately agreed to resolve the case through alternative dispute resolution.

After negotiations, the pipeline company and its insurers agreed to pay a $6 million settlement. The outcome secured much-needed compensation for our clients and held a powerful corporation accountable for its negligent actions.
