Injury: L5/S1 lumbar spine fusion with arthroscopic knee surgery and hip surgery.
Facts: Plaintiff, a passenger in a vehicle, Plaintiff’s co-worker drove her in a vehicle owned by their
employer.
While in a parking lot, they were T-boned by another car exiting the parking lot. The employer disputed liability and claimed the Plaintiff was prohibited from suing her employer.
We prevailed in a Workers’ Compensation hearing and were allowed to sue the employer, as well as the owner and operator of the other vehicle involved.
We then retained experts to establish the Plaintiff’s financial loss due to not being able to return to work, as well as the need for lifetime medical treatment.
Facts: Plaintiff was a passenger in the lead vehicle of a chain reaction rear end collision.
We moved for summary judgment prior to depositions being conducted, which was granted.
We then retained an expert life care planner to project Plaintiff’s future medical expenses to include in liability damages.
Injury: Lumbar spine fusion at L5/S1

During discovery, we established that the police had no justifiable basis to stop, let alone strike, the vehicle in which Plaintiff was a passenger.
The Defendants denied liability on the basis that they were protected by governmental immunity.
The Defendants lost their motions to dismiss, and the case settled at a pre-trial conference.
Injury: Cervical spine fusion at C6/C7 and multiple second degree burns
Facts: Plaintiff was driving along a street towards an intersection on an avenue in New York.
The intersection was controlled by a stop sign for traffic entering from the avenue (i.e., facing the
Defendant).
The Defendant disregarded the stop sign and T-boned Plaintiff who had the right of way.
After the accident, we obtained summary judgment on the liability issue which the defendants appealed.
The Defendants took the position that they would not pay and, despite the Defense allegedly having damaging video footage, we were able to recover damages for Plaintiff.
Injury: C5/C6 cervical spine fusion and arthroscopic knee surgery.
Facts: A police vehicle was driving on the wrong side of the road, allegedly responding to an incident, when it struck the Plaintiff’s vehicle at an intersection.
The police initially denied liability, claiming their lights and sirens were on, and that the Plaintiff should have seen or heard the police car.
We obtained records from the city proving that the lights and sirens were not activated and found an eyewitness who confirmed that fact.
The Plaintiff was a passenger on a public bus. The bus driver failed to stop at a stop sign and then
slammed on her brakes to avoid a major car accident.
As a result of that sudden stop, Plaintiff was thrown from her seat into a metal pole inside the bus.
We obtained summary judgment as the bus driver’s negligence in violating the New York Vehicle and Traffic Law.
