We have successfully undertaken to represent clients in many difficult cases, on occasion where other lawyers refused to get involved: A client's car skidded off the roadway and landed in the Bronx River. We were able to show that Westchester County had built the roadway too close to the river and should have had a guard rail. We recovered $225,000.00. A client drove off the roadway and struck construction material on the roadway. Blood tests showed that he had three times the legal limit of alcohol in his system. We contended that the roadway construction was dangerous and contributed to the accident. We recovered $150,000.00. A client slipped on a floor mat while entering a drugstore. He was coming from dialysis and a witness stated that he had fallen because he felt weak and got dizzy. We recovered $210,000.00. Your case will be given every consideration.
