William P. Moore recently obtained at $5.55 million settlement on behalf of his client, who was seriously injured in a motor vehicle accident, due to the negligence of a tractor-trailer operator.
Tractor-Trailer Accident
Mr. Moore’s client, who was a professional tree-trimmer at the time of the accident, was the passenger in a car that was taking him to work. The automobile, which was traveling on a highway in a rural community in Western New York, was being closely followed by a commercial tractor-trailer. As the victim’s vehicle slowed for a roadway condition, the tractor-trailer operator, who was not maintaining a proper distance, rear-ended the automobile. The force of the impact was so great that it propelled the victim’s vehicle nearly thirty feet and scattered debris along the roadway.
