A skillful deposition by a Fort Lauderdale law firm secured a settlement worth more than $6.65 million after an admission of partial fault from a driver in a personal injury case.

Attorneys from Krupnick Campbell Malone Buser Slama Hancock Liberman in Fort Lauderdale snagged the crucial admission to help settle the case for plaintiff Andrea Mirabal, a young beauty queen injured at the scene of a roadside fender bender by a third driver who pinned her between two vehicles. Mirabal, 21, was initially involved in a minor traffic collision when another driver, Christopher Petricone Jr., plowed into her as she inspected the damage from the first crash.
