Sloppy Repair Work Leads to $85,000 Settlement

A Beacon NY car dealers repair shop had no checks and balances to make sure the work performed on cars was done properly.   So, when a mechanic forgot to tighten the lug nuts on the tires he just rotated, there was no safety system in place to discover the dangerous condition before the car was released to the owner.  Not surprisingly, the tire came off as our client was driving away from the car dealers garage.   Fortunately our client did not require any surgery to his shoulder and neck.  We were able to settle the case with the insurance company for $85,000.  The case was handled by managing attorney Melody Gregory and Trial Attorney Chis Camastro.
