Case Details:
Rosenberg & Gluck, LLP trial lawyers Erin Hargis and Ted Rosenberg explain how they held New York’s Nassau County responsible for not addressing the limited sight distance of a dangerous curved road that resulted in a life-altering crash. At the intersection of Erwin Place and Oceanside Road, 17-year-old driver Nicollette Iacone pulled to a stop and crept forward to peer beyond obstructing hedges on the Grassi, Kotter, and Piccoli property line and an inoperable control cabinet before making a left turn. Sal Passanisi, Jr., who was speeding and driving under the influence of alcohol, collided with Nicollette, resulting in life-altering traumatic brain injuries. The jury returned a verdict assigning 14% negligence to Sal and 86% negligence to Nassau County. Ultimately, all parties settled for a total of $25,425,000.
