$1.25 Million Settlement in Chicago Wrongful Death and Construction Accident Lawsuit

The case involved a Wrongful Death action on behalf of the Estate of a 26-year-old man who died after being pinned while standing on the back of a truck, driven by his brother, which was backing into a driveway.  The brothers were Chicago Construction Workers engaged in a job at the time.  Top Chicago Wrongful Death Attorney, Stephen M. Passen, recovered a $1.25 million settlement (plus waiver of a worker's compensation lien in excess of $350,000.00).
