Tractor Trailer Accident Case: $351,000

A commercial truck driver’s brakes failed, and his truck crashed into a fully loaded tractor trailer. He was flown by helicopter from the accident scene to a Savannah hospital, where he spent weeks recuperating and undergoing multiple orthopaedic surgeries.

He suffered a traumatic brain injury, a broken femur, a lacerated spleen, and injuries to his arm and hand. The total settlement included $235,000 for the client and $116,000 for an administered Medicare Set-Aside account for his future medical needs.

From the client’s family

“My husband was catastrophically injured in May 2017. We hired Powers Law Group based on a referral from a lawyer in Savannah. We are so happy with their representation and how we have been treated. I would recommend Jeff and Adam to anyone who needs a great and honest lawyer.”
