$630,000 for Motorcycle Accident
Miguel Oyola, of Medford, was struck by a car on April 14, 2003, as he was stopped waiting to turn into his apartment complex. He fractured his right ankle, which required a plate and screws and six surgeries to repair, and lost most of the skin on it as well.
Oyola had obtained a license to drive tractor-trailers and was looking for employment. Now, due to his recent disability, he is unable to shift the gears and has taken up a job as an electrician’s assistant. The two insurance companies that covered the driver, Doris Pullen, argued in whether she was an independent agent or a Prudential Fox employee.
The settlement was reached for $630,000 from PMA and Hanover.
