Begam & Marks Recovers $2.247 Million for Injured Child

Begam & Marks members Steve Friedman and Richard Traulsen have successfully settled a claim on behalf of a young Native American girl who was severely burned when she came into contact with an electical transmission line that had been negligently installed near her home on the Gila River Indian Community. The governmental agency who had installed the line denied any liability, and the case was hard fought in Federal Court right up to the eve of trial. Ultimately, the Federal government increased its offer to sufficient level to compensate the young girl and her parents. Richard and Steve are both extremely proud to have had the opportunity to help this wonderful family.
