1. $2,325,000.00 — $2.35M settlement for our client who was left alone by her attendant and caused to suffer a fall and leg injury resulting in a partial amputation. The defense tried to blame the plaintiff claiming that she was acting on her own. Thorough discovery revealed that the attendant departed from good and accepted practice by leaving the plaintiff despite clear indications that the plaintiff was not to be left alone. Non-party witness testimony obtained from a former executive who was in charge at the time of the accident confirmed that the home care protocols were clearly violated by the home...
2. $2,100,000.00 — $2.1M settlement for our client who was seriously injured after falling in a grocery store. Our client had injuries to her neck, shoulder and knee requiring surgeries after tripping and falling on debris left on the floor by store employee. At trial, the defense attempted to claim that the unwitnessed accident would have been picked up by video, and the fact that video does not depict the accident calls into question whether or not the accident ever happened. Upon further questioning, however, the defense witness admitted that the video camera globes in the area of the accident were...
3. $1,900,000.00 — $1.9M settlement for a client who was injured during construction when he was struck by falling debris. During a demolition project, the plaintiff was tasked with removing a large window from an exterior wall. The top of the window stood approximately 10 feet off of the ground. The plaintiff was not provided with an elevated working platform and was instructed to stretch a pry bar over his head in an attempt to pry the window out of the wall. As he stretched to pry overhead, the top of the window casement became dislodged and fell from a height of 10 feet, striking the plaintiff and...
4. $1,500,000.00 — $1.5 million mediated settlement for a 40 year old Long Island man who fell 10 feet from a ladder while performing a repair on a gas station sign. His lower back injuries ultimately resulted in a lumbar fusion surgery 10 years following his accident. We won summary judgment on the question of liability under §240 of the New York Labor Law in a hotly contested battle which went up the Appellate Division, Second Department.
5. $1,500,000.00 — $1.5M settlement for a client who slipped and fell on a poorly shoveled sidewalk resulting in leg injuries requiring surgery. The plaintiff walked along a sidewalk in front of a commercial building that had been mostly abandoned by the owner except for a small group of workers who maintained an office to wind down the business. The defendant’s witness testified that it had no knowledge of the condition of the sidewalk on the date of the accident, or the days leading up to the accident, and was unable to refute the plaintiff’s testimony that the sidewalk contained a dangerous ice condition....
6. $1,415,000.00 — $1.4M settlement for a client who was in a motor vehicle accident and suffered a leg injury resulting in a partial amputation. The plaintiff was stopped at a red light when the defendant struck the rear of the plaintiff’s vehicle. The plaintiff suffered knee injuries requiring surgery. Unfortunately, post-operative complications led to infections, further surgeries, and ultimately required amputation.
7. $1,000,000.00 — $1 million settlement at Trial for a 57 year old Queens teacher who was rear ended while stopped for traffic on her way home from work. Our client eventually underwent a 2 level cervical fusion surgery and was unable to work for 9 months following the incident. We won summary judgment on the issue of liability before taking depositions which strengthened our position early in the case. We also hired an economist to help establish a claim for future lost earnings, based on the claim that our client would be forced into early retirement.
8. $825,000.00 — $825,000.00 settlement for a 40 year old NYPD officer who was struck by a driver who ran a stop sign. The officer sustained a serious neck injury and after a thorough course of conservative treatment, she was forced to undergo a cervical discectomy surgery.
9. $825,000.00 — $825,000.00 mediated settlement for a 32 year old New York City electrician who fell from a ladder while installing BX cable in the ceiling of a newly renovated office in a Manhattan high-rise. Our client was caused a significant neck injury including several herniated discs and will require pain management for the rest of his life. He was ultimately diagnosed with Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) Syndrome, or Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), which is a chronic condition characterized by severe burning pain, most often affecting one of the extremities (arms, legs, hands, or feet).
10. $400,000.00 — $400,000.00 settlement for a 43 year old Brooklyn man who fell down a set of stairs after stepping into a trap door inside of a Brooklyn bodega. This terrible fall resulted in various injuries to his knee, wrist, neck and back. After going through extensive treatment our client was forced to have an arthroscopic knee surgery to repair torn ligaments.
