At Riddle & Riddle Injury Lawyers, we fight for maximum compensation. When Justice Counts™, our record speaks for itself.
$1,500,000
Our client was killed in a crash on NC Highway 55 near Mount Olive when a pickup truck attempted to pass her in a no-passing zone at 70 mph while she turned left onto Kelly Springs Road. She was rushed to WakeMed hospital, where she tragically passed away.
The severe collision forced both vehicles into a ditch and overturned her sedan, resulting in fatal injuries and criminal charges against the defendant for misdemeanor death by vehicle. Although insurers denied liability, claiming our client failed to signal, our firm hired an accident reconstructionist to prove that the turn signal was operational and that the defendant’s aftermarket tires and lift kit caused him to travel faster than his speedometer indicated.
Recognizing the family’s dire financial hardship following the loss of their loved one without life insurance, we leveraged these technical findings to demand immediate pre-lawsuit mediation. Our aggressive approach successfully forced the defense to raise its initial $500,000 offer, resulting in a $1,500,000 settlement less than eight months after the crash.
