Case Details
An Essex County jury awarded $2.4 million to Dyan Ambrogio, a motorist who suffered permanent injuries, including herniations at cervical and lumbar intervertebral discs, after her vehicle was struck from behind at a red light. The verdict included $2 million for her damages and $400,000 for her husband's loss of consortium. The case involved a claim against the negligent driver and an underinsured-motorist policy claim against her own insurer, New Jersey Manufacturers Insurance Co.
Additional Notes
Offer Prior to Trial: $0. Prior to trial, the at-fault driver's insurer tendered its $15,000 policy. Non-binding arbitration assessed a $77,700 recovery from UIM, reduced to $62,700. The defense filed for a trial de novo. Attorney Peter De Frank represented the plaintiffs.
