Suisman Shapiro attorneys secured a $1.15 million settlement for the estate of a New London man who was killed in a hit-and-run.

The complaint alleged that Shirley Langford, the defendant, hit the decedent, Kim Weeks, with her car while Weeks was walking on the shoulder of the road on Route 85 near the Crystal Mall in Waterford. Multiple eyewitnesses saw Langford driving in “an erratic fashion” that evening, the complaint alleged. A police investigation concluded Langford struck Weeks, and kept driving, court records show.
