Sullivan Papain’s John F. Nash Secures $750,000 Settlement in Motor Vehicle Collision Case

Sullivan Papain is proud to announce that firm Member John F. Nash secured a $750,000 settlement on behalf of a client who sustained serious injuries in a motor vehicle collision caused by a negligent driver.

The case arose from a crash that occurred in Riverhead, New York, when an on-line food delivery driver ran a red light and struck the client’s vehicle on the driver’s side. The impact was forceful and sudden, causing significant physical harm to the client and his passenger.

As a result of the collision, the client suffered a rotator cuff tear that required surgical repair, as well as an aggravation of a pre-existing head injury. Before the crash, the client had been undergoing rehabilitation to improve his speech following the original head injury. However, the trauma of the collision caused a setback in his recovery, leading to renewed difficulties in communication and emotional distress.

Mr. Nash worked to demonstrate the extent of the client’s physical and neurological injuries, as well as the profound impact they had on his quality of life. The settlement compensates the client for his pain and suffering, medical expenses, and the lasting effects of his injuries.
