Recovery in excess of a million dollars
A Pittsburgh man from Brighton Heights was a passenger in a car driven by a drunk friend as they left Three Rivers Stadium after a Pirate baseball game. The drunk driver crashed the car and caused his passenger to be rendered a quadriplegic as a result of a severe brain injury. We filed a claim against the concession company at Three Rivers Stadium that sold the alcohol to the patron at the baseball game who was intoxicated. The company argued that there was no way for the people at the concession stand to know that the patron was intoxicated, but we eventually obtained a large recovery well in excess of a million dollars on behalf of this gentleman.
