The Freibott Law Firm was successful in prosecuting a case against Cottrell Truck Lines, Inc., a Connecticut trucking company, when its truck driver, on April 6, 2000, caused a serious motor vehicle collision when he rear ended our client who was stopped for traffic. The collision caused the death of our client. A large settlement was achieved on behalf of the decedent’s two children. Our firm was able to prove that the decedent suffered conscious pain and suffering after the collision during the next 14 days before he died. Our firm was able to secure a very large settlement, just before trial was to begin, for the economic loss and the mental and emotional agony caused by the death in this case. It is interesting to note that the trucking company, before the trial was to begin, conceded to the fact that their driver was at fault for the collision. (Pierce v. Cottrell Truck Lines, Inc. CA No. 02C-04-052 CHT)
