$3M Settlement for Car Accident Injuries

$3 million resolution in Suffolk County, NY to an 82-year-old woman injured in a car accident when a driver T-boned the vehicle in which she was a passenger. Engineering and black box analysis demonstrated the young driver was traveling in excess of the speed limit, and actually accelerated as she approached the other car, indicating that she was distracted by either a phone call or texting and never saw the other car. The plaintiff suffered numerous injuries including a right humerus fracture requiring an open reduction and internal fixation, a right clavicle fracture, a pelvic ring fracture requiring open reduction and internal fixation, a bladder rupture, and rib and lumbar fractures, all of which required medical care, and contributed to her being unable to maintain her previous active and independent lifestyle. Our office retained various experts in the fields of medicine, biomechanical, life care and economics that forced the defendant to put up their entire insurance policy very early in litigation.
