Attorney Maurice Davis and Davis Injury Lawyers, PLLC, announce that they are representing the personal representative of a man killed in a work incident in December 2023 in Wayne County.
Davis Injury Lawyers, PLLC filed a complaint in the Wayne County Circuit Court on behalf of the victim’s family against several defendants. The complaint named The Thomas Trucking Group, its owners, one of its truckers, the city of Riverview, and the Riverview Land Preserve as defendants in their civil claims case.
The victim was a truck driver delivering a load to the Riverview Land Preserve, a waste facility in Wayne County, in 2023 when another vehicle began to make a delivery. The second vehicle shifted as it deposited its load, causing it to tilt and crush the victim in his vehicle. He was killed in the incident.
The victim’s estate is seeking compensation from the named defendants for injuries and damages arising from negligence, gross negligence, and negligent infliction of emotional distress.
Attorney Maurice Davis said cases like his client’s matter not just to provide some closure to the victim’s family but also to make an example of companies who cut corners and create dangerous scenarios.
“This case is an example of when multiple instances of negligence were ignored, leading to a fatal accident. We believe getting justice for our victim’s family is crucial to holding other companies that make similar mistakes accountable,” Davis said.
“This tragedy could have been avoided.”
