Truck Crash – Back Injury
Mendez vs. Go Express, LLC
In Mendez v. Go Express, LLC, the plaintiff brought a personal injury lawsuit in Fresno, California, following a truck accident involving a commercial vehicle operated by Go Express. The case focused on the negligent operation of the commercial truck and the company’s responsibility to ensure proper driver training, supervision, and safe driving practices for all vehicles operating on California roads.
Commercial truck accidents frequently result in severe back injuries due to the tremendous force involved in collisions with large vehicles. Back injuries from truck crashes can range from herniated discs and compressed nerves to vertebral fractures – all of which may require surgery, ongoing pain management, and can prevent victims from returning to the work they performed before the accident.
As a result of the collision in Fresno, the plaintiff sustained a significant back injury requiring medical treatment that impacted daily activities and the ability to earn a living. After trial, the jury returned a verdict of approximately $1.5 million in favor of the plaintiff, holding Go Express, LLC fully accountable for the negligent operation of their commercial vehicle and the serious injuries caused.
