Auger & Auger

A woman walking home from her job was struck and killed by a tractor-trailer; Auger and Auger attorneys secured a $1.25 million settlement after mediation failed and the parties disputed the extent of her suffering before death.

Margaret Linville, 58, suffered bilateral distal femur fractures, fractured ribs, and a traumatic brain injury when her Charlotte taxi struck a telephone pole after another cab cut it off and fled the scene; dashcam footage identified the fleeing driver, and the case settled for $500,000.
