An Aberdeen woman won a $450,000 settlement from the city and state in a lawsuit over injuries she sustained when a street light collapsed onto her car in 2006. Lacey Hicks received severe injuries from the accident, requiring surgery resulting in physical disability and limited range of motion. A subsequent investigation found that the bolts at the base of the street light were rusted and structurally unsound, possibly contributing to the collapse. If you have suffered injuries in an accident caused by someone else, you need experienced legal representation to argue your case.
