Roll Over Car Crash Success Story – $1,050,000
A 50 + year old lady, with a twenty (20) year history of working for Boeing, was seriously injured when her car was forced off the roadway and it road down an embankment pinning her in the vehicle. As it turned out, she fractured her ankle and was facing a three joint fusion in her ankle and other joints.
It was expected that she could not return to her job at Boeing for the rest of her life and a loss of earning capacity claim was asserted for the Boeing worker. Given that she was 53 and not be able to work until retirement, her economic loss claim was substantial, e.g. loss of earnings for at least another 10 years.
This case was settled one month prior to trial in Snohomish County, Washington.

Renton Bicyclist Hit by Vehicle, Seriously Injured
A man was seriously hurt Thursday evening when he was struck by a vehicle in Renton while riding his bicycle.
Renton police said they and Renton fire units were called to the 200 block of Logan Avenue North, near Renton Memorial Stadium, just after 5 p.m. after multiple reports of the collision. First responders found the man unconscious and unresponsive.
Police said initial indications are that the man was riding across lanes of traffic on Logan, in the middle of the block, when a vehicle traveling on the street struck him. It appears that the vehicle was traveling the posted speed limit, police said.
The man was not wearing a helmet and hasn’t been identified, police said. He was taken to a hospital with serious injuries.
