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: BERGESON V. CROWN ZELLERBACH$1.85 Million Settlement For Young Girl Who Develops Torticollis Following Low Impact Rear End Auto Accident Mary Bergeson was a teenage girl who was a passenger in her parents car when it was rear ended at low speed by a station wagon driven by a Crown Zellerbach employee. Neither of M's parents - in their 70s - were injured. The extent of property damage to the family car was a bent license plate. Ms. Bergeson, however, developed severe neck problems. Eventually, the doctors diagnosed a torticollis - a condition where a knot develops in the side of the neck causing the neck and head to be permanently fixed to the opposite shoulder. M's doctors decided to treat the condition by fusing her cervical spine. BIREN/KATZMAN created a dramatic presentation of the life long impact which these injuries would have on the plaintiff. The case settled for $1.85 million, despite the absence of a significant impact.
