Personal Injury
Doctor Soma Mandil was yesterday awarded $7.2 million in personal injury settlement from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.
Doctor Mandil fell and sustained a broken elbow in March 2007. She had been walking and then slipped on a rubber mat on a walkway in the Newport-Pavonia PATH station.
The accident has prevented her from returning to work at New York's NYU Medical Center, where she worked as an attending physician.
The $7.2 million personal injury compensation consists of $3 million in pain and suffering compensation and $4 million in compensation for lost future earnings.
