$725,000 FOR PEDESTRIAN KNOCKDOWN

Ronald D. Ingber successfully resolved a pedestrian knockdown on the eve of trial for $725,000. The 71 year old client was crossing an intersection in NYC when he was struck by a pick up truck. As a result, the client spent nearly two weeks in the hospital and underwent a total knee replacement. SILER & INGBER, LLP a NY personal injury law firm, commenced a lawsuit against the corporate owner of the pick up truck for its negligence and that of its driver. Defendant made numerous attempts to resolve this action for significantly less money during the discovery phase of the litigation and at a mutually agreed upon mediation. Although progress was made throughout the action, it was the days leading up to trial where Defendant repeatedly contacted SILER & INGBER, LLP raising its offer during each conversation, resulting in a settlement of $725,000 on the eve of trial. If you or a friend has been in an accident, do not hesitate to contact the attorneys at SILER & INGBER, LLP for a free consultation to discuss your NY accident.
