FLINK MASWICK LAW SECURES SETTLEMENT FOR PERSONAL INJURY PLAINTIFF CLIENT

James L. Maswick • January 17, 2023

Flink Maswick Law PLLC is pleased to announce that it has achieved a settlement for a client in a

personal injury matter which was recently resolved. The client, a young man, was a pedestrian

who was hit by a motor vehicle while running and sustained serious injuries requiring surgical

intervention. The automobile which hit our client came onto the sidewalk where our client was

running and contacted him from behind. The team at Flink Maswick Law, including Attorneys Ed

Flink, James Maswick and Jill O’Sullivan, together with Legal Assistant Melanie Strack, were able

to secure the settlement prior to trial in this matter, which was scheduled to take place in

Saratoga County Supreme Court.


If you know someone who wants to discuss whether they have a personal injury action that

they want to pursue, please don’t hesitate to call our office. We offer free consultations to

discuss personal injury matters and typically do not receive payment unless we recover funds

for the client. Attorney Ed Flink is a member of both the Million Dollar Advocates Forum and

Multimillion Dollar Advocates Forum as a result of his prior recoveries on behalf of clients

during his career. While the client was certainly pleased with the outcome here and accepted

the settlement, prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome for your matter.

Jill E. O’Sullivan, an attorney with Flink Maswick Law PLLC, successfully moved to dismiss a petition brought against our client in Family Court, seeking modification of an order of custody based upon a settlement agreement reached in the client’s divorce action, which had been incorporated into their Judgment of Divorce. Our client, the mother of the children, has primary physical custody. She moved with the children in order to take a new job, which would provide her and the children with more financial stability. The father of the children objected and filed the petition, seeking to modify the parties’ custody agreement, alleging the mother’s relocation was a change of circumstances warranting a modification of custody. O’Sullivan successfully argued that the relocation did not constitute a change in circumstances, since the parties had contemplated such a change in residence by the mother and their settlement agreement explicitly addressed the issue, providing that our client could move up to 120 miles, and the client’s new residence was within that distance. The Court granted the motion to dismiss the petition in its entirety, without a hearing, and awarded our client reasonable attorneys’ fees.  If you require assistance with a matter involving child custody, call our office at (518) 523-2441 to speak with a family law attorney.
