$5.75 Million Settlement for Local Chicagoland Family
November 26, 2024
Michael P. Scanlon secured a $5.75 million settlement for a Chicagoland family after Gary Luke, a Sauk Village police officer, initiated a pursuit after witnessing a vehicle speeding and littering. The fleeing vehicle crashed into the family's home, severely injuring a minor.
Defendants filed multiple motions for summary judgment, arguing that they were immune from liability. Michael won all motions, and the case settled shortly before trial was set to begin.

Kevin Veugeler secured a $3.2 million recovery plus a waiver of $750,000 in Workers' Compensation benefits for a Sprinkler Fitter who fell from a ladder. While litigating this case, Kevin was able to show that the general contractor and owner of the jobsite failed to follow their own site-specific safety plan to protect the safety of their subcontractors. Through documents and deposition testimony, Kevin was able to establish that the general contractor and owner failed to provide a safe place to work.
