Recent Personal Injury and Car Accident News

A Kaua'i jury recently returned a $1.8 million verdict for a woman who received multiple serious injuries and disfigurement in a Kauai car accident which occurred about four years ago in Hanalei. The woman was riding as a passenger on a motorcycle when she was struck and dragged by a speeding motorist. The accident had previously received media attention when the motorist was allowed to plead out to a petty misdemeanor DUI charge after the prosecution accidently failed to bring felony negligent injury charges in the DUI case. After the accident, with the help of her personal injury attorney, the woman has been able to complete her GED and she now works as a literacy tutor. Wilson v. Say, Fifth Cir. Court of Hawai'i (March, 2009)
