$780,000 Settlement – Motor Vehicle Accident

The plaintiff, a 43-year-old airline maintenance mechanic, was driving a van on the O'Hare Airport tarmac when he was hit by a Hudson General refueling truck. Allegedly, the truck driver ran a stop sign and collided with the plaintiff's vehicle when he took his eyes off the road to retrieve something that slid off the dashboard. Our client sustained an ulnar fracture, left and right ulnar impaction syndrome necessitating ulnar head resection, and a broken middle finger - which required surgery being done.
