$600K Settlement

Trial attorney Michael Alder of Alder Law, P.C., obtained a $600K Settlement in favor of his client, the widow of deceased truck driver Thomas Castillo. Castillo was a victim of a Metro bus driver negligence and he suffered a fatal fall from the impact of a MTA bus to his boom lift cherry picker. So, in this case study see how attorney Mike Alder retained MotionLit to produce a video case study that helped explain the accident and damages in a comprehensive and visually engaging way.

On February eleven, two thousand fourteen, at approximately three twenty-five am, as Mr. Castillo made a delivery of a Genie boom lift, an MTA bus crashed into the basket of the boom lift. The impact threw Mr. Castillo from the basket 11 feet onto the pavement. As a result, Thomas Castillo would be pronounced dead as the result of blunt force head trauma.

A passenger on the bus testified that the driver was not paying attention, because even from the back of the bus, he (passenger) could see through the front window and see a worker in the high lift up ahead. So, had the MTA driver been paying attention, she would have clearly seen Mr. Castillo and avoided his tragic death.
