Case Details

On the eve of trial after years of protracted litigation where we would not back down, the New York City Transit Authority finally accepted responsibility for negligently running over our client with a subway train at an uptown Manhattan subway station after our client had previously fallen onto the subway tracks.

Additional Notes

Although the motorman operating the train attempted to claim in a written report that our client jumped in front of the train, we were prepared to show that the motorman who was operating the train falsified his report and should have seen him on the tracks as he was approaching the station. Notwithstanding his significant and traumatic injuries requiring bilateral lower leg amputation of his legs, this was still a very difficult case because a jury may very well have attributed a large degree of fault to our client for his presence on the tracks.
