Lombardi, 794 A.2d 453 (R.I. 2002)]
• Confidential multi-million dollar settlement, believed to be the largest personal injury settlement in Rhode Island, on behalf of a 13-year-old girl, and her family, who suffered catastrophic injuries when she was struck by a motor vehicle operated by an intoxicated driver and owned by a leasing company
• Confidential settlement against a car manufacturer on behalf of a child who was paralyzed as a result of a defective seatbelt system which caused her to suffer a spinal cord injury during a one-vehicle collision
• Confidential settlement against a town on behalf of two elderly people struck and seriously injured by a police cruiser whose operator had negligently failed to use the siren when responding at high speed to a suspected crime scene
