Verdicts & Settlements

With more than 30 years of experience representing plaintiffs who have sustained serious personal injuries or financial losses, the trial lawyers of BIREN/KATZMAN have successfully handled hundreds of cases, collecting more than $150 million for our clients. The following case is just one example:

HARWOOD V. CUSTOM FOODS

$2 million ++ Settlement For Traumatic Brain Injury

Truck driver Jack Harwood was making a delivery to Custom Foods. The company's loading dock did not have sufficient room for Mr. Harwood to open his trailer's barn type swing out doors. The company directed him to park in the median of the adjacent busy street to prepare his truck for unloading.

When Mr. Harwood opened the trailer door, it swung into the traffic lane. An oncoming vehicle struck the door, knocking Mr. Harwood to the ground and causing him to sustain a traumatic brain injury that disabled him from working.

The defendant claimed the accident was entirely Mr. Harwood's fault. BIREN/KATZMAN developed evidence, however, showing that the company was negligent and the loading dock's dangerous. In the end the company settled for more than $2 million.
