- $8.8 million settlement for a client who tripped and fell in a parking garage pothole, suffering significant cervical injuries requiring multiple surgeries and a permanent loss of income. After a liability verdict in the client’s favor, the firm negotiated this resolution as the damages phase of trial was about to commence.
- $12 million settlement for the family of a pedestrian tragically struck by a bus while in a crosswalk, suffering catastrophic injuries that led to wrongful death. This confidential settlement, among the largest in New York in 2020, was resolved early in the process, allowing the family closure without enduring a public trial.

The jury awarded damages for pain and suffering, medical expenses, and lost income after finding the defendant 100% liable.
