She had been standing in between the stalled vehicle and the guardrail at the time of the accident, which is why the impact caused her to be thrown over the rail.<\/p>\n<p>The car that was stopped did not have the appropriate hazard lights on and the driver who hit the car was not following commercial vehicle safety precautions. The truck driver was going too fast at night to be able to see within the range of the truck\u2019s headlights, therefore, they did not have enough time to avoid the hazard. Due to the reckless and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kalkalaw.com\/general-negligence-lawyer-atlanta-georgia-negligence-lawyer-near-me\/\">negligent<\/a> actions of both drivers, our client was injured by being thrown over the guardrail.<\/p>\n<h2>Injuries Incurred<\/h2>\n<p>Her injuries include the laceration of her spleen, broken bones in her right leg, paralysis of her right and dominant lower limb, damage to her back, and impingement syndrome in her right shoulder. Between her extensive medical costs and lost income while spending time recovering, the accident caused serious damage to our client\u2019s overall physical, mental, and financial well-being.<\/p>\n<h3>Settlement Obtained for Our Client<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kalkalaw.com\/meet-our-team\/\">The Kalka Law Group<\/a>\u00a0was able to prove negligence on the part of the other two drivers and recover a substantial settlement to cover the cost of her pain and suffering, lost wages, and medical bills.
