An Injured Worker in Staten Island Settles Lawsuit

According to Frank Donnelly, a reporter for the Staten Island Advance, a Staten Island man who was injured while doing concrete laying work in 2005 at a Manhattan construction site has settled his lawsuit for $390,000.

Anthony Sutter was injured in 2005 while doing work for a high rise building in Manhattan and sustained severe injuries to his neck that would cause him to change his career and will probably not allow him to ever go back to his career as laying concrete ever again. 

Sutters severe neck injury happened when he was laying concrete down and a temporary vertical wooden brace fell on his head says his lawyer Frank J. DiBari who practices law at Jonathan D'Agostino & Associates.

Even after neck surgery was done to help correct the injuries Sutter sustained he is still unable to go back to work as a concrete layer and now works in a Manhattan firm as a sales associate. 

Sutters case was recently settled with Admiral Insurance Company on behalf of the property owner and the general contractor in which he received $390,000.
