Our clients were traveling in a Ford F250 on Highway 290 when they approached a tractor-trailer parking on the right-hand shoulder of the highway.  Suddenly and without warning, the tractor-trailer pulled across the highway to enter a private driveway right in the path of travel of our clients.  Our clients’ vehicle was sent careening into a ditch and the tractor-trailer came to a rest in the roadway.  Brenham, Texas police responded to the scene.  The insurance company for the trucking company attempted to place blame on our clients and deny compensation to them for their medical bills incurred as a result of the 18-wheeler accident for neck and back injuries.  After filing the lawsuit and litigating the case, the parties were able to reach an amicable resolution and confidential settlement for their injuries.
