Just as Abby began her new life in Florida, a single devastating moment on a quiet sidewalk changed everything.
As she crossed the street near her home, an elderly driver turned left in front of an approaching vehicle, forcing that driver to swerve into Abby’s path. Tragically, Abby was thrown 25 feet in the air, rendering her unconscious and causing devastating injuries. The defenses included alleged speeding on the part of the approaching vehicle.
Fortunately, Managing Partner Gary Lesser and Partner Joseph Landy were retained within days of the crash and built an irrefutable case that forced the elderly driver’s insurance carrier to pay $1.27 million settlement.
Gary and Joe’s meticulous investigation uncovered a video of the crash from a nearby surveillance camera. Next, they hired an accident reconstruction expert to examine the video footage, skid marks, and property damage. This resulted in incontrovertible proof that the elderly driver caused the accident.
After being presented with all the evidence and a compelling video settlement documentary and aggressive negotiations, the elderly driver’s insurance company had no choice but to pay their seven figure policy limits.
The significant financial recovery not only provided Abby with justice but gave her a sense of closure following a stressful and traumatic time in her life.
