Settlement for elderly client who sustained hip fracture from moving taxicab while being loading into vehicle. The taxicab company initially tried to argue that the incident never happened. Then, it played the “it wasn’t me” defense. Through rigorous litigation, we were able to establish that the taxicab company had unlawfully destroyed GPS records in contravention of local municipal codes. Using other records to establish that the taxicab company had made a pick-up at the exact location and time as our client’s incident combined with an adverse jury instruction regarding spoliation of evidence, the defense was forced to pay $750,000.
