We obtained a $1 million settlement at Trial for a 57 year old Queens teacher who was rear ended while stopped for traffic on her way home from work.
Our client eventually underwent a 2 level cervical fusion surgery and was unable to work for 9 months following the incident.
We won summary judgment on the issue of liability before taking depositions which strengthened our position early in the case. We also hired an economist to help establish a claim for future lost earnings, based on the claim that our client would be forced into early retirement.
