In handling the many intricacies that arose, your staff made it a priority to get all items documented as thoroughly as possible and made certain the issues that came about during the filing were handled in a manner that definitely simplified and cohesively put all instances in the correct order.

Settlement At Mediation

Settlement: $550,000

We obtained a settlement at mediation of $550,000 in case where our client, a home health aide, was pushed down stairs by an elderly dementia patient she was caring for. Our client worked for an agency and was hired by the family to care for an elderly woman in her home. One day when the Aide was bringing breakfast upstairs to feed the patient, the patient met the Aide at the top of the stairs and pushed her backwards, causing her to fall down to the bottom of the staircase. As a result of the fall, our client sustained serious back injuries which eventually required discectomy and fusion.

During the course of litigation, settlement was reached for $249,000.00 by Eric A. Polinsky.
