Motor Vehicle Accident/Claimed Traumatic Brain Injury

Manatee County, Florida – Sean M. Conahan and Tera L. Radigan. Fulmer, LeRoy, PLLC was assigned to defend the owner and permissive driver of a personal automobile involved in a three-vehicle accident. Following the first collision between the client and a third-party, the client’s vehicle impacted with the Plaintiff’s vehicle, which was stationary, preparing to exit a private commercial parking lot. As a result of the impact, the claimant was claiming injuries which included a permanent traumatic brain injury, and an acute disc injury requiring an anterior cervical discectomy. Fulmer, LeRoy, PLLC was successful in convincing the jury that neither the subsequent surgery nor the claimed traumatic brain injury were causally related to the motor vehicle accident. Despite a directed verdict as to liability, Sean and Tera convinced the jury to return a total verdict of under $1,000.00.
