LitigationPosted in on February 9, 2022
When a woman slipped on an accumulation of snow and ice and suffered injuries, she turned to the legal team of Baker, Braverman & Barbadoro, P.C. to represent her and protect her rights. The client, who had pre-existing, long-term arthritis, suffered a left hip fracture. The litigation team conducted an immediate investigation of the premises where the accident occurred, conducted interviews, and collected all relevant data, including but not limited to certified weather studies.
Once the client concluded her medical treatment, Attorneys Paul N. Barbadoro and Richard C. Ash were able to present her case to the insurance companies and filed suit against the property owner, general contractor and sub-contractor. After conducting and defending depositions and completing written discovery, liability was clear and the case was expeditiously resolved at a mediation for almost $200,000.00. The litigation team was able to achieve a settlement without going to trial, which resulted in huge savings of money and time. Further, the claim was resolved without any medical bill liens which resulted in the client receiving more money in her pocket.
The litigation team worked with the medical providers, experts, insurance companies, and the client to achieve an excellent outcome. At Baker Braverman & Barbadoro the attorneys are dedicated to achieving the best result for our clients and will advocate zealously on their behalf. – Richard C. Ash.
