$1,100,000 Settlement for Traumatic Brain Injury

While replacing an awning over a doorway, a contractor failed to protect our client who was walking out of the doorway. The awning fell striking her in the head, causing a concussion. While 85% of people who suffer a concussion make a full recovery, our client was in the miserable minority who have long lasting effects. From dizziness to frequent headaches, the concussion symptoms never went away. Rather than face a jury, the contractors insurance chose to offer $1,100,000 which our client found acceptable.

The case was handled by Partner David Gross and Trial Attorney Chris Camastro.
