EEP Law Fights for What Matters to You Most – Your Family and Your Future.
Accidents can have devastating effects on families.
Where do you turn to if you’ve been injured? Who will help if you’ve been hurt at work, who will pick you up if you slip and fall? Who will be by your side and fight for you if you’ve suffered the wrongful death of a loved one?
EEP Law is NYC’s Powerhouse Personal Injury & Civil Rights Law firm.
In this case, our client, a hardworking father and husband, was provided with an unsafe ladder (because a scissor lift was unavailable) and fell more than 20 feet sustaining multiple injuries.
We fought for every dollar of compensation possible to ensure that he would be able to provide his family with generational financial security.
Our client didn’t realize he sustained a head injury, never formally reported his accident and didn’t seek medical treatment until one week after he fell. When he finally went to the ER, our client was diagnosed with a brain injury that required surgery.
When we first met our client, he was told by others that he wouldn’t have a successful case because he didn’t report his fall and waited to seek medical treatment. We saw things very differently and fought for our client until the time of trial, where this case settled.
Named Partner, Ray Panek along with trial paralegal, Jeniah Campbell, tried the case to a verdict over three weeks and once again got a jury to award an eight figure verdict. The jury awarded $32,000,000 (with judicial interest applied the actual award is over $41,000,000!). This is the highest verdict in New York in 2021!
During the pandemic, before a trial date was scheduled, we were told that the offer to settle this case would never be higher than $4,000,000. Now that the Courts are almost fully open, insurance companies have nowhere left to hide and the time for tough talk is over!
Settlements like this one happen because insurance companies know we have a track record at trial and are always ready to take the case to trial.
Work. Win Repeat!
This case was venued in notoriously tough, Richmond County, but we never stopped fighting for our client.
