Stemming from a 2017 bus accident in Brooklyn, a client of the firm settled her case for $837.5k on February 2, 2024. The settlement was reached during the second day of jury selection in Kings County Supreme Court, Brooklyn, NY, located at 360 Adams Street.
Facts as alleged by the Plaintiff. The plaintiff alleged that while working and ensuring that her mentally challenged clients boarded the bus safely, the doors of the bus closed in on her body and she was dragged as she attempted to board the bus. Because she could not leave her clients, she continued on the bus and contacted her employer. When she got back to her employer’s office, a report was filled out and she then went to the hospital. However, the bus driver claimed that he was unaware of this incident and further, there was no report generated by the bus driver’s employer.
Thereafter, she was unable to return to work and received extensive medical treatment due to the injuries she sustained, to include bilateral shoulder injuries, bilateral ankle injuries, neck and back injuries. As a result of the neck and back injuries she sustained, she underwent two fusion surgeries.
