Dordick Law Corporation is pleased to announce the resolution of a personal injury matter involving a collision between a California Highway Patrol (CHP) patrol unit and our clients. The case concluded with a $2.6 million global settlement following a protracted dispute regarding liability and the extent of our clients' injuries. 

Case Overview 

On November 24, 2020, a CHP officer ran a red light and struck our client's vehicle in a T-bone collision at approximately 55 MPH while our client was lawfully making a left turn through a signal-controlled intersection. As a direct result of the impact, our clients suffered ongoing neck and back pain, requiring years of pain management treatment. 

Challenges in Litigation 

The defendant argued that our clients did not suffer acute trauma as a result of the collision and relied on their experts' opinions to claim that the years of treatment were neither reasonable nor necessary. However, during deposition, the defendant's own Person Most Knowledgeable (PMK) admitted that, based on his background, training, and experience, the injuries sustained were precisely the type one would expect from an incident of this nature. 

Conclusion 

This outcome demonstrates the importance of perseverance and thorough case development, particularly when dealing with public entities and cases involving chronic, non-catastrophic injuries. At Dordick Law Corporation, we are committed to ensuring that our clients receive fair compensation, even in the face of strong opposition and complex liability disputes. 

We have extensive experience standing up to big corporations, insurance companies, and negligent individuals to secure the compensation our clients deserve. Our offices are located in downtown Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, and Riverside.
