The Law Firm of Tatlow, Gump, Faiella & Wheelan, LLC would like to congratulate partner Chris Faiella for again being recognized by Missouri Lawyers Weekly for Top Verdicts & Settlements of 2010. In March 2010, Chris reached a $3.125 million dollar settlement for his client who was injured after getting pinned between two vehicles in 2008. The client suffered severe permanent injuries to both legs, including an above-the-knee amputation of his left leg.

The accident occurred when the defendant stepped on the gas instead of the brakes by mistake. The plaintiff was pinned between the bumpers of two vehicles. His left leg was crushed and eventually had to be amputated due to complications. The plaintiff underwent several painful procedures in an attempt to save his leg, but none were successful. The plaintiff’s right leg was also fractured in the accident and he experienced several other serious complications during his medical treatment. The plaintiff’s injuries rendered him unable to work. His damages were approximately $66,000 in lost earnings and $370,000 in medical bills. His future life care costs are estimated to be $734,000.

Chris Faiella joined TGF& W in 1995 after graduating from the University of Missouri—Columbia School of Law.
