$60M Settlement in I-55 Work Zone Paraplegia Case

Summary: Sarah Grasser was driving on Interstate 55 in Illinois when a dangerous construction zone changed her life. Another car swerved to miss a massive pothole and caused Sarah to crash into a ditch. The crash caused a severe spine injury called a T12 vertebra burst fracture, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. Because the road work companies failed to keep the area safe, ten different businesses agreed to pay a $60 million settlement. This money will help cover the lifelong medical care and equipment she now needs.
