As a result of the crash, our client tragically lost his fianc\u00e9e, who was a passenger in his vehicle and he suffered emotional damages as a result of witnessing her death.<\/p>\n<p>Kanner &amp; Pintaluga\u2019s personal injury team lead by <a href=\"https:\/\/kpattorney.com\/firm\/attorneys\/howard-kanner\/\">Howard Kanner,<\/a> brought a cause of action for negligent infliction of emotional distress against the defendants. The defendants argued that our client was not permitted to bring such a claim, arguing that Florida law requires that for such a claim to be brought, the emotional distress must manifest in a physical injury. Trial attorney and Partner <a href=\"https:\/\/kpattorney.com\/firm\/attorneys\/joseph-abdallah\/\">Joseph Abdallah<\/a> argued that the defendant relied upon an archaic interpretation of Florida\u2019s impact rule and that the Court must more appropriately apply the modern interpretation as set forth in the Florida Supreme Court case <em>Willis v. Gami Golden Glades, 967 So. 2d 846 (Fla. 2007)<\/em>. There, the Florida Supreme Court opined that, \u201c[i]f the plaintiff has suffered an impact, Florida courts permit recovery for emotional distress stemming from the incident during which the impact occurred, and not merely the impact itself.\u201d Through a comparative analysis of reported cases our trial team demonstrated that our client was permitted to recover for his emotional damages despite not having a physical manifestation of his injury. Before the Court issued a ruling on the matter, the defense offered $750,000 to resolve Plaintiff\u2019s damages.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Get What you Deserve<\/strong><br \/>\nKanner &amp; Pintaluga is an aggressive, ethical, and results-driven national plaintiff firm committed to representing accident, serious injury, and property damage victims.
