Plaintiff Suffers Severe Injuries, Defendant Fails to Assist

Northern California attorney, Bruce Ahnfeldt, successfully litigated a suit on behalf of a man who sustained serious injuries in a side impact collision. The Defendant caused the collision after he failed to yield to the Plaintiff and entered an intersection as the Plaintiff was passing through. The force of impact caused a sternum fracture, as well as multiple fractures to the ribs and spine. In addition, the Plaintiff sustained a lung hematoma, numerous contusions, and a serious neck laceration from the seat belt. Attorney Ahnfeldt contacted DK Global to produce an animation that would depict the collision, injuries and the Defendant's carelessness.

Medical documents and the police report guided the presentation to ensure its accuracy. The animation begins with the Defendant stopped at the stop sign heading west, and the Plaintiff driving northbound before the Defendant's truck drives out in front of the Plaintiff, causing the collision. After the cars spin out and come to their resting positions, the camera dynamically moves into the Plaintiff's vehicle as the car and background goes transparent to depict the injuries sustained. The Plaintiff's seven rib fractures, single fracture to the sternum, lung contusion and hematoma, three spinal fractures, and finger injury are all animated and labeled. Next, the Plaintiff is animated escaping his vehicle through the window and crawling back towards the intersection, while the Defendant refuses to check on, or assist, him. Finally, the presentation ends with actual photos from the collision and the Plaintiff's subsequent recovery. The visual aid provided exactly what Attorney Ahnfeldt needed to secure a substantial, but confidential, settlement: a concise and compelling recreation of the incident that adequately conveyed the severity of the injuries sustained.
