A former lineman for UCLA lost his leg after a taxi cab collided with his motorcycle at a dangerous intersection. Because the intense level of damages heavily outweighed the cab driver’s insurance policy, Garo Mardirossian, Esq., needed to show why California’s Department of Transportation, Caltran, shared liability for his client’s damages.
Mr. Mardirossian argued that Caltran ignored several complaints about a dangerously elevated rise in the roadway that caused a line-of-sight obstruction at the intersection, which was also reportedly responsible for numerous other traffic accidents over the years. Caltran officials confirmed in trial that this was an oversight on their part, but they disputed liability for the Plaintiff's damages. The highest amount Caltran would offer was $2.9M.
Mr. Mardirossian believed his client deserved much more compensation for his client's pain and suffering, and he tasked High Impact with magnifying the most brutal chapters of his client's traumatic experience as he underwent 13 surgeries that would gradually amputate his leg.
