Today we survived another snow storm in NYC. Unfortunately, on February 13, 2014, at 4:00 p.m. a Defendant felt the pelting of a bigger storm dished out by Sacco & Fillas’ own, Senior Trial Attorney, Lamont Rodgers, Esq. in Supreme Court: Kings County. A unanimous verdict was delivered today by a Brooklyn jury where the Defendant was found 100% responsible for a motor vehicle accident notwithstanding the fact that our client, the Plaintiff, had the stop sign. Defendant alleged the Plaintiff failed to stop at the stop sign and recklessly entered into the subject intersection. Our client’s position was that he did have the stop sign, came to complete stop but the defendant was travelling at such an excessive rate of speed that her negligence was the substantial factor in causing the accident. The jury agreed with the Plaintiff as the evidence was skillfully presented by Mr. Rodgers. Our client received the full limits of the defendant’s policy of $100,000.00 for the arthroscopic surgery he underwent as a result of the injuries sustained in the accident. Another job well done by Lamont Rodgers, Esq. Kudos to Lamont!
