$600,000 Settlement for Passenger Injured in Rideshare Crash

RAM Partners attorneys Matt Bonanno and Tyler Hall secured a $600,000 settlement for a client who was injured while riding as a passenger in a rideshare vehicle. The driver crashed into the rear of a stopped car, causing the client to suffer shoulder and neck injuries that required pain management procedures. Although liability was not disputed, the insurance company contested the extent of the client’s injuries and the need for future treatment. The case was scheduled for trial but resolved following a settlement conference before Judge Kaplan, the presiding civil judge in Middlesex County. Matt and Tyler strategically relied on the Transportation Network Company (TNC) Safety and Regulatory Act to strengthen their client’s position and neutralize the defense experts.
