The Incident
A dedicated school bus driver for a local district sustained a traumatic head injury after a utility truck ran a red light and struck her bus. Despite the obvious danger and resulting trauma, both the Workers' Compensation carrier and the utility company's insurance initially failed to acknowledge the life-altering nature of her injuries.
After turning to Coye Law Firm for representation, her case proceeded to a 5-day jury trial where our team presented clear evidence of her injuries and impaired ability to work.

The verdict included compensation from both the utility company's insurer and the Workers' Comp provider. In addition, our client now receives monthly Social Security Disability payments for life—securing the long-term care and financial security she deserves.
