Torn Quadricep Yields $75,000 Settlement In Queens County (NYC) Slip And Fall

by Law Offices of Thomas L. Gallivan, PLLC 26 Nov2009

A 41 year-old female allegedly slipped and fell in a Brooklyn (NYC) parking lot of a catering hall. She claimed that the parking lot was dangerous due to uneven pavement. She reportedly fell, and suffered a tear of her quadricep. The owner of the parking lot denied that the lot was dangerous and questioned whether the incident actually occurred since it was unwitnessed.

Plaintiff asserted that the torn quadricep will cause permanent pain and limtitations. She has not undergone surgery because she fears that surgery would not improve her current condition. This matter settled pre-suit for $75,000.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

" Last year I was injured in an accident, and for the first time, needed the advice of an attorney regarding how to proceed. I was referred to Thomas Gallivan through a family member who is a lawyer in Massachusetts. I am beyond pleased with how Thomas handled my case. He was knowledgeable, professional, and although the case was not as straightforward as some, he used every resource to ensure a positive outcome. Thomas communicated with me regularly and I felt completely informed and confident in his ability. He expertly negotiated a fair settlement that I was very happy with. The entire experience was extremely positive, during a stressful time for me. Thank you Thomas. "

" I was a passenger on a motorcycle and ended up falling off the back of the bike due to the driver acting like an idiot. I fell off at a high rate of speed and was very banged up. Fractured wrist and road rash down my back and elbows. I am lucky I didnt die. Not knowing what to do I contacted Thomas and he could not have been anymore helpful!! He went out of his way to meet with me. He actually came to my house for the initial consultation. I know nothing about law or what my options even were. He took me through everything step by step.
