Paul Walker's 16-year-old daughter Meadow has been awarded a $10.1 million settlement from the estate of Roger Rodras, the man involved in the fatal accident that killed him and her father.
The Fast and Furious actor died in 2013 while in the passenger seat of a Carrera GT driven by his friend Roger Rodas, when it crashed into a row of trees.
Meadow Walker's lawyer Jeff Milam has now told People that she has received a multi-million dollar settlement, however he argues that the amount is not sufficient.
Milam said: "The amount paid by the estate of Roger Rodas into a trust for Meadow Walker only covers a fraction of what her father would have earned as an international movie star had his life not tragically been cut short.
"Through his estate, Mr. Rodas, the driver of the car, took partial responsibility for the crash. Meadow's lawsuit against Porsche AG – a $13 billion corporation – intends to hold the company responsibly for producing a vehicle that was defective and caused Paul Walker's death."

In a separate suit, Meadow is suing Porsche over allegations that the Carrera GT lacked key safely features.
Porsche has consistently denied any responsibility over the fatal accident, saying the crash occured due to "reckless driving and excessive speed".
This week, Kristine Rodas, the widow of Roger Rodas, lost her wrongful death lawsuit against the German car manufacturer.
She filed a lawsuit against the company, alleging that the suspension system along with other design faults in the 2005 Porsche Carrera GT were responsible for the crash.
On Monday (April 4) U.S. District Judge Philip S. Gutierrez said there was no evidence the Porsche's suspension failed before the crash, as Rodas' lawsuit claimed.
"Plaintiff has provided no competent evidence that Rodas' death occurred as a result of any wrongdoing on the part of defendant," Gutierrez wrote in papers obtained on Tuesday by the Daily News.
