Cardelli Lanfear Obtains Dismissal of Third-Party No-Fault Matter

The firm is pleased to report that it obtained summary disposition for one of its clients in a third-party automobile negligence matter filed in Wayne County Circuit Court.  In this particular case, the plaintiff sued our client, despite the fact that the plaintiff failed to yield at a stop sign.  The trial court agreed that the plaintiff was at least 51% at fault as a matter of law, barring the lawsuit.  The trial court further ntoed that the plaintiff had the last, best chance of avoiding the accident and running the stop sign to interfere with Defendant’s right-of-way was the primary cause of the accident.  For more information, please feel free to contact firm partner, Michael Smith.
