Justice Served: Victor Montez Wins $8.9 Million After Devastating Crash with Intoxicated Driver

In 2019, Victor Montez was involved in a head-on collision with Dennis Perez, who had entered the oncoming lane of traffic. Perez was driving at an unsafe speed given the wet road conditions at the time of the accident and had consumed a 22-ounce beer an hour before the crash. Montez had to be extricated from his truck by emergency responders immediately after the accident. He suffered a severely fractured femur and serious internal injuries, including the removal of his spleen and multiple reconstructive surgeries. Additionally, Montez endured back and neck trauma requiring fusion surgery, as well as a traumatic brain injury that will affect him for the rest of his life. Montez sued Perez accusing Perez of driving while intoxicated and seeking compensation for his injuries. A California state court jury awarded $8.9 million to Mr. Montez.
