The Tadchiev Law Firm has achieved a significant legal victory by securing a $985,000 settlement for a pedestrian who suffered severe injuries in a 2020 accident in Nassau County, New York. The victim, an auto mechanic, was struck by a left-turning vehicle while crossing the street with the right of way, resulting in injuries that required multiple surgeries and left him unable to work for nearly two years.
Boris Tadchiev, the founding partner of The Tadchiev Law Firm, P.C., represented the victim in a personal injury lawsuit filed in Nassau County Supreme Court. The case was against the estate of the driver, who had passed away after the accident. A pivotal moment in the case came when the defense's orthopedic doctor confirmed the extent of the victim's injuries, including diminished range of motion and disability, directly linking them to the accident.
This settlement not only compensates the victim for his injuries and lost wages but also serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of negligent driving. It underscores the critical role of experienced legal representation in personal injury cases, as demonstrated by The Tadchiev Law Firm's thorough preparation and negotiation skills.
