On a recent case, Dr. Dassa performed bilateral arthroscopic knee surgeries on a Bronx plaintiff who was awarded $100,000 in past lost wages; and $50,000 in past pain and suffering, for a total verdict of $150,000. In what can only be viewed as the perfect plaintiff's case, the innocent plaintiff was a pedestrian on the sidewalk when a car mounted the curb, striking her and throwing her to the ground. This horrific photo was presented to the jury to depict the severity of the impact.
