Herndon Reston head injury and brain trauma lawyer Doug Landau notes that settlements of children&#8217;s traumatic brain injury cases should be approved by the Court where the case is pending.  Court supervision helps ensure that the injured child cyclist&#8217;s welfare is protected and that the disbursements of money is appropriately made.  At ABRAMS LANDAU, Ltd., we have structured settlements for a number of clients over the years.  <em>The structuring of a settlement for an injured child is often a good idea so as to avoid dissipation of the settlement and to create a regular, tax-free income.<\/em>  The Henrico Circuit Court, where Doug Landau has appeared before the judges in order to get the approval of a compromise settlement in a child&#8217;s dog bite case, also approved the settlement in this boy&#8217;s bike crash and brain injury case.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The plaintiff, a 12-year-old boy, was riding his bicycle on December 27, 2006, when he was struck at the intersection of Old Nuckols Road and Nuckols Road in Henrico County by a minivan.
