Motor Vehicle Accident

$800,000 Settlement - Motor Vehicle Accident -
Wrongful Death

 
Attorneys: John M. Blume & Dennis Donnelly
Settlement: $800,000.
Summer 2007

Blume Goldfaden Partners, John M. Blume and Dennis Donnelly represented a family involved in a motor vehicle accident in 2004. The husband (driver) and wife (passenger) were traveling in a van on a roadway which accommodated one lane of traffic in each direction, divided by a double yellow line. The defendant crossed the double yellow line, and hit our clients' vehicle head on, killing the 68 year old wife and mother of seven grown children. Messers Blume and Donnelly were able to secure a Court ruling which dispensed with any liability issues, making the matter one for consideration of damages only. In addition, Mr. Blume and Mr. Donnelly represented another family member (the decedent's son) who was traveling in a car behind his parents. The son's claims were based in his psychological injuries, as he had witnessed the accident, his mother's injuries, and her death. The case was settled during Court hearings on the "eve" of trial.
