Careless Newburgh Driver Held Accountable

Our client was severely injured when a Newburgh man backed out of his driveway in such a rush that he didn’t even look behind him. He backed up directly into our client who was parked nearby. Had the other driver taken just a moment to check behind him, as all reasonable and responsible drivers do, the crash never would have happened. Our client sustained debilitating injuries to his neck, shoulder, legs, hips, and hand. His injuries required intensive treatment including shoulder surgery and multiple rounds of physical therapy each week. The driver who caused the crash completely disregarded the safety of others on the road and unfortunately, our client suffered the consequences. This case was handled by Managing Attorney Melody Gregory, one of our Newburgh injury lawyers with more than 40 years’ experience, and Trial Attorney Chris Camastro. The case was ultimately settled for the full amount of all available insurance, $100,000.
