$250,000 Policy Limits Settlement for Wrongful Death in Head-On Collision

T.E. was a married father of one who was killed while driving home from work.  On a two lane road in St. Louis County, Missouri, a distracted teenager crossed the centerline and collided head-on with T.E.'s small pickup truck. The force of the impact caused his truck to become airborne and turn over on its side.  The interior crushed around him, requiring that he be extricated from the truck.  He was rushed to a local hospital, where he underwent two surgeries in an effort to save his life.  Sadly, he died, leaving behind his wife of ten years and a six year old daughter.

The teenager's parents carried an insurance policy of $250,000.  After negotiation, the insurance company agreed to pay its policy limits.
