Panish | Shea | Ravipudi LLP attorneys Spencer Lucas and Marguerite Sanvictores have obtained a $5,000,000 settlement for a 62-year-old man who suffered severe injuries after he was thrown to the floor of a municipal bus. The Torrance Transit bus operator had illegally entered an intersection in attempt to pass 10 vehicles and in an extremely abrupt manner, slammed on the brakes — coming to a complete stop — to avoid striking another unidentified vehicle.
