Pedestrian's Death

Client’s Case

A pedestrian, visiting a local homeowner, was standing adjacent to a car on the street. Tragically, he was struck and killed by a passing vehicle which unfortunately had New York’s minimum insurance coverage of $25,000. We secured a recovery against the homeowner and a not-for-profit organization, who the driver, we alleged, was acting on its behalf when he struck the pedestrian.
