Morici, Longo & Associates recently achieved a $590,000 settlement on behalf of a suburban senior citizen who suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI) after being struck in a high-speed, chain-reaction collision. Trial Lawyer Brian S. Shallcross aggressively pursued the claim after the defendant rear-ended the client’s vehicle in a congested traffic area, triggering a multi-car crash. The force of impact left the victim with a TBI, post-concussion syndrome, right shoulder adhesive capsulitis, a herniated cervical disc, PTSD, and persistent ankle and calf pain—injuries that demanded extensive medical care and caused significant disruption to his life.
This significant settlement highlights the complex nature of traumatic brain injury and severe bodily injury claims, especially when caused by negligent drivers in dense traffic conditions. TBI cases often involve prolonged recovery, costly medical treatment, and long-term cognitive or emotional effects. Rear-end collisions—particularly those involving high speeds or multiple vehicles—are among the most common causes of concussions, brain injuries, and orthopedic trauma.
