$8.8m
TRIP AND FALL ACCIDENT/SIGNIFICANT NECK INJURIES AND LOST INCOME
Lever & Ecker's client tripped and fell in a pothole in a parking garage in New York, causing the firm's client to suffer significant cervical injuries which required multiple surgeries, resulting in a significant loss of income. At trial, the jury agreed with our argument that the defendants were fully responsible and rendered a 100% liability verdict against them. Thereafter, as the damages phase of the trial was about to commence, Lever & Ecker negotiated an $8.8 million settlement on behalf of our client, reflecting the significant pain, suffering, and lost income she suffered as the result of a single step that changed her life forever.
