$600,000 Recovery in Improper Crosswalk Design Case

A man was severely injured when he was struck by a car while using a pedestrian crosswalk connecting an establishment to a parking lot. He suffered a number of significant orthopedic injuries requiring multiple surgeries. After resolving the matter with the motorist, Emily Chimenti and Kent Winingham pursued an improper crosswalk design case against the City of Shelbyville. Emily was able to secure critical testimony through her depositions of multiple witnesses, supporting the plaintiff’s belief that there was not proper signage identifying the crosswalk for oncoming motorists. Emily and Kent were able to secure an additional $500,000 recovery against the city.
