SSH Wins Settlement in Runaway Trailer Death
In November 2007, Stueve Siegel Hanson obtained a $1.6 million policy limit settlement in a runaway trailer case that resulted in the tragic death of the father of our clients. The lawsuit claimed that the defendants failed to conduct even a cursory inspection of the trailer and truck prior to operating the vehicle that would have revealed the improper ball and hitch assembly, the improper installation and use of the safety chain, and the unconnected safety cable and electronic braking device on the homemade two-ton trailer that resulted in the wrongful death.
