Representative Experience

• A law enforcement officer was involved in a high speed collision while responding to a fire call in a rural area. The officer was sued by the driver of the other vehicle, who contended that the officer was inappropriately responding to the fire call as an emergency. The officer sustained serious injuries of his own in the accident, including a neck fracture which limited his employment capabilities after the accident. After a jury trial of almost two weeks, the jury determined that the officer's negligence in causing the accident was minimal, and he was allowed to recover damages for his injuries.
  
• The parents of their deceased teenage son were sued as a result of an auto accident that took his life. The other driver, who was uninsured, claimed that the accident was caused by the negligence of the deceased teen. The 17-year-old boy who was killed in the accident was never available to testify about how the accident occurred, and there were no other witnesses to the accident, except for the other driver who sued. The issue in dispute was which driver crossed the center line before the collision. After a four day trial, the jury determined that the deceased teenage boy was not the primary cause of the accident and the party that sued his family was denied a recovery. The parties were entitled to recover uninsured motorist benefits because their deceased son was not primarily at fault for the accident.
