Verdicts & Settlements

With more than 30 years of experience representing plaintiffs who have sustained serious personal injuries or financial losses, the trial lawyers of BIREN/KATZMAN have successfully handled hundreds of cases, collecting more than $150 million for our clients. The following case is just one example:

CHAVEZ V. SWIFT TRUCKING

Woman Whose Leg Is Injred In Big Rig Accident Settles With Trucking Company For $850,000

Maria Chavez, a 31 year old lace cutter, was on the San Bernardino Freeway when her car was struck on the left side by defendant's tractor trailer. The force of the collision forced her vehicle down an embankment, where it split in half upon contact with a Eucalyptus tree.

Ms. Chavez sustained a degloving injury of her calf and fractures of her right ankle and left foot.

BIREN/KATZMAN established that defendant's driver was speeding during the rainstorm and caused the accident by making an illegal and unsafe lane change. Extensive discovery further established that the trucking company had violated numerous trucking industry regulations by allowing its untrained driver to be driving during the extraordinarily heavy rainstorm.
