Truck Accident

Our client’s father was killed as the result of a collision with a tractor-trailer near River City Casino in St. Louis, Missouri. The truck driver was also killed in the collision. After filing suit and being removed to federal court, we were able to have the case remanded to state court by opening an estate for the truck driving and adding the estate as a party defendant and destroying diversity jurisdiction. Shortly after, the insurance company for the truck driver offered to settle the case.
