Despite the fact that this case was referred to Dansker & Aspromonte LLP Associates
by another attorney 17 years after the accident took place, a stunning verdict was won
through painstaking investigation and tireless preparation. Connie C. was a cabaret
singer driving home in a heavy rainstorm on the Grand Central Parkway after a
performance on Long Island. Her car suddenly drove into a pond of water on the
roadway which caused her car to slide across multiple lanes of traffic and over an
embankment. She suffered serious physical and psychological injuries. At trial, it was
shown that, despite the passage of so much time, the City had failed to adequately
clean the storm sewers, which caused the ponding and made driving in that area
extremely dangerous.
