$1,350,000 - Motorcycle Crash Verdict
In May 2010, Keith Mitnik obtained a $1.35 million verdict on behalf of an unhelmeted motorcyclist who suffered a closed head injury after colliding with the rear of a SUV that changed lanes in front of him.
Alexander Clem and Keith Mitnik, attorneys at Morgan & Morgan, obtained a $1.35 million verdict for their client Randall Hobbs in a motorcycle accident lawsuit. Mr. Hobbs sustained a closed head injury when his motorcycle collided with another vehicle.
On January 13, 2007, Mr. Hobbs was riding his motorcycle westbound on State Road 434. An SUV driven by Kara Adams changed lanes in front of him, causing him to collide with the rear of the SUV. As a result of the collision, Mr. Hobbs and his passenger, Laura Barkman, were thrown from the motorcycle. Both of them suffered closed head injuries.
The frontal lobe injuries sustained by Mr. Hobbs resulted in cognitive deficits and diminished mental capacity. Although Mr. Hobbs is capable of working as a construction laborer, he will never return to his former position as a construction superintendent. During the seven day trial, the defense attempted to argue that Mr. Hobbs’ closed head injuries were the result of his failure to wear a helmet. However, Mr. Hobbs’ attorneys successfully argued that the injuries were caused by the brain rebounding inside the skull, and a Seminole County jury awarded Mr. Hobbs $1,335,593.19.
