Our client, a 25-year-old male, was injured in a highway collision in Los Angeles when the defendant recklessly merged into his lane, causing significant damage and injuries. A $1.25 million settlement was secured despite the defendant’s disputes.
Our client, a 25-year-old male, was traveling on a highway in Los Angeles, CA, when the defendant, not paying attention to the surrounding traffic, suddenly merged into our client’s lane. This unexpected and reckless maneuver led to a severe collision with our client’s vehicle, causing it to lose control and crash into the center median. The defendant’s actions were in violation of California Vehicle Codes 21658, 22350, and 23103, which mandate safe lane changes, reasonable driving speeds, and prohibit reckless driving.
The collision resulted in significant injuries to our client, affecting his head, face, neck, shoulders, knees, and back, leading to $729,000 in medical expenses. Treatment included lumbar spine surgery and right shoulder arthroscopic surgery, with ongoing pain requiring future intermittent chiropractic and physical therapy. Despite the defendant disputing the claims, expert testimony confirmed the reasonableness and necessity of the medical treatments due to the severity of the impact.
Through diligent legal work, Messrs. Khakshooy and Agarwal secured a $1.25 million settlement for our client, highlighting the defendant’s liability and the necessity of the medical treatments. This case reinforces the critical importance of adhering to traffic laws to ensure the safety of all road users.
