$1.25M Settlement for Ride-Share Passenger Injuries

$1.25 million settlement on the eve of Arbitration for this 31-year-old man Westchester, who was a passenger in a Ride-Share vehicle that was violently struck by another vehicle in Yonkers. The plaintiff suffered serious neck and back injuries that led to an anterior cervical disc excision and fusion at C3-4, C4-5 and C-6 with interbody fusion using allograft bone at C3-4, C4-5 and C5-6 and a decompressive laminectomy of the thoracic spine at T5, T6, T7, T8 and T9 with decompression of the spinal cord as well as posterior instrumentation of the thoracic spine from T5 through T9 with bone grafting for fusion. After collecting the entire $100,000 policy from the offending vehicle, we went after the host vehicle’s underinsurance (SUM) policy, collecting the remaining available value of $1,150,000.
