Military Motorcyclist Sideswiped Near the Pentagon
CSCS took over representation of a U.S. military member who was sideswiped while riding his motorcycle on Interstate 395 near the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia. The client was 45 when the newsletter reported the result.
TBI, Foot Surgeries, Amputation and CRPS
The crash caused a traumatic brain injury, a serious foot injury requiring multiple surgeries, amputation of the client’s big toe, and complex regional pain syndrome. The injuries forced him to take disability retirement.
CSCS Takes Over After $60,000 Offer
When CSCS took over the case from another attorney, the insurance company had offered $60,000. Joseph Cammarata, with Stephen Ollar, vigorously litigated the matter and obtained all available insurance: $1.3 million.
