Brooklyn Verdicts and Settlements    
 
 
$561,000 verdict for NY construction worker injured by falling steel girder (3/2/2000)
The plaintiff was injured when a falling steel girder struck the basket in which he was working during the demolition of a steel structural support on the West Side Highway renovation project.
 

According to the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control, 1.4 million Americans suffer a traumatic brain injury each year. Of those, 50,000 die and 1.1 million are treated and released. But a large number, 235,000 victims, are hospitalized and could suffer serious brain injuries.

Unfortunately, children are most at risk for suffering accidents that could lead to a serious or traumatic brain injury. More than 475,000 children suffer from serious brain injury accidents each year. That means they're more likely to need extensive medical care for a long period of time; medical care that can get quite expensive in Brooklyn.

While accidents are the greatest causes of brain injuries in Brooklyn, they can also be caused by:

  • Slip and fall accidents
  • Car accidents
  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Inherited genetic defects
  • Viral infections
  • Trauma or drug use of the mother
  • Delivery medical malpractice

In some cases, brain injuries can be treated with surgery, but the patient may be left with limited mental abilities. Brooklyn brain injury lawyers can help you sue whoever is responsible for you or your child's brain damage and make them pay for whatever expensive treatment is required.

Brooklyn brain injury lawyers will also be able to sue for lost future income and for any pain and suffering.

  New York Mulls Kendra's Law Extension
Audio, RM, 44 Kbps, 4:15, 1/25/2005

Legislators in New York State will decide this spring whether to extend Kendra's Law. The statute requires that mentally ill people, who are judged to be dangerous, undergo mandatory therapy. Opponents argue that court-ordered treatment is a violation of civil liberties.
