New Haven Law Firm Secures $2.8 Million Settlement in Crash Case
A retired nuclear engineer has been awarded $2.8 million following a catastrophic motor vehicle collision at a New Haven intersection. The settlement resolves a claim against a driver who ignored multiple posted warnings and executed an illegal turn from a restricted lane directly into the plaintiff’s vehicle.
John J. Kennedy, Jr., the founding partner at Kennedy, Johnson, Schwab & Roberge, P.C. who represented the plaintiff, emphasized that the resolution serves as a form of accountability for the negligence displayed by the other driver.
