$19.2 Million Settlement with Gas Company for Home Explosion
Mr. Mendelsohn and his law firm recently reached a $19.2 million settlement with the parent company of Elizabethtown Gas. This matter arose out of a deadly gas explosion which took place on November 11, 2015, at an apartment building located at 1035 Magnolia Avenue, Elizabeth, New Jersey. The explosion left three family members dead and three others with serious burn injuries. The explosion also killed one of the tenants in the upstairs apartment who brought a separate action which has now settled.
