Use of Cell Phone by Transport Driver Leads to Injury
JULY 2010 - A six-figure settlement was secured for a client of Alvarez Garcia after her injury while riding home from a doctor's appointment in a private transport van. Anthony Garcia's litigation of the case led to the discovery that the driver was conversing on a cell phone which, in turn, caused the driver's distraction and sudden stop to avoid a nearby traffic accident. The stop tossed the special-needs client about the vehicle and into a metal handrail. The resulting injuries were further aggravated by the driver's unfortunate decision to return the client to her home as opposed to facilitating her medical care.
