PHILADELPHIA – A Texas man believes a local construction firm and two of its employees were negligent in causing a motor vehicle accident in North Philadelphia which left him with a number of serious injuries.
Victor Adeniyi of San Antonio, Texas filed suit in the Philadelphia County Court of Common Pleas on July 6 versus DD Fox Construction LLC, and two of its employees, Donald Plummer and Michael Porter, all of Philadelphia.
“On or about July 28, 2015, at or near the intersection of West Diamond Street and Broad Street, Philadelphia, PA, defendants, DD Fox, Plummer and Porter, collectively, so carelessly and negligently operated the aforementioned vehicle so as to cause it to collide with plaintiff’s parked vehicle, causing plaintiff, Victor Adeniyi, the driver of his vehicle at the time of the accident, to sustain the injuries and other losses hereinafter more fully set forth. The aforesaid incident was due solely to the negligence and carelessness of the defendants, acting as aforesaid, and was due in no manner whatsoever to any act or failure to act on the part of the plaintiff,” the suit states.
According to Adeniyi, the defendants collectively violated numerous roadway rules and the Pennsylvania Motor Vehicle Financial Responsibility Law.
“As a result of this incident, plaintiff, [Victor] Adeniyi, has suffered injuries which are or may be serious and permanent in nature, including but not limited to: disc injuries, nerve damage, severe head, back, neck, shoulder, arm, and leg injuries, as well as other injuries and ongoing physical rehabilitation as may be diagnosed and/or prescribed by plaintiff's health care providers, all of which have caused plaintiff in the past, and may cause him in the future, great pain and suffering,” the complaint says.
For a count of third-party liability, the plaintiff is seeking damages, jointly and severally, not in excess of the Court’s arbitration limits, plus interest and costs in this matter.
The plaintiff is represented by Justin M. Bieber of J. Bieber Law, in Philadelphia.
