Gomez vs Xerox – Xerox Pays $5 Million Settlement to Family in Los Angeles Wrongful Death Lawsuit
Los Angeles, California – United States – Thanks to the hard work and dedication of the Orange County based Roberts Law Firm, the Gomez family finally has some closure regarding the death of 63-year-old wife and mother Elvira Gomez, which resulted in a negligent entrustment suit against Xerox Corporation. Driving a company vehicle, Eduardo Delgado, a Xerox employee with a DUI history, struck Mrs. Gomez in April, 2009, as she crossed the street, on her way home from church, resulting in the injuries that caused her death and his third DUI conviction.
A lawsuit for wrongful death was filed against Xerox Corporation in Los Angeles Superior Court in December, 2009, on behalf of Mrs. Gomez’ surviving adult children and husband. A settlement of $5 million was obtained from Xerox in November, 2011, by the family’s attorney, Orange County personal injury attorney Jeff Roberts. Family members plan to use their money to seek enactment of a California law requiring businesses with 10 or more employee-drivers to register them in a California DMV program that provides automatic notifications when an employee is convicted of a DUI or similar serious traffic violation.
