Settlement Reached with Junis Freight for I-290 Median Accident 

February 20, 2019

Romanucci & Blandin, LLC announced a settlement with Junis Freight on behalf of Alfred Castillo, who was hit by an illegally merging truck on I-290 in heavy traffic while repairing his car on the median in December 2014. Castillo was awarded $610,000 in the settlement.

Jose Reyes, the defendant driving the box truck for Junis, admitted he had first observed Mr. Castillo’s stalled vehicle approximately six minutes before he ultimately hit the plaintiff, who was pushed to the ground from the impact of the collision further aggravating preexisting injuries to his spine. As the result of the accident, Castillo underwent a discectomy and a number of injections to treat his injuries.

Romanucci & Blandin Senior Associate Bruno R. Marasso and others represented the plaintiff.
