After multiple verdicts and appeals, a young man who was run over on his motorcycle by a drag-racing car in an Edison industrial park six years ago has decided to end the litigation for a $6.3 million payment, according to documents.

Hussein Agiz was 18 when he went out for an evening with friends to watch drag racing in the 10-acre Heller Industrial Park. But as he rode his bike down one of the straight, flat roads, he found himself between two cars speeding in opposite directions. The one that hit him exploded into a ball of fire, as did his bike, according to the complaint he filed against the owner of the property, Heller Industrial Parks Inc.

Agiz went through 10 surgeries, and the loss of an arm and a leg. He suffered broken bones all over his body. He still suffers from phantom pain from the amputations that can’t be relieved with medication, according to court filings.

Yet Agiz recovered enough to continue his education, graduating with an engineering degree from Rutgers University. He earned praise even from judges who reviewed appeals and noted his desire to learn biomedical engineering so he could design better prosthetic devices for himself and other amputees.

Agiz’s suit included a claim against Heller, alleging that the company failed to take steps to address a known, yearslong issue of after-hours drag racing on the property.

In February 2019, Agiz won a $39 million jury verdict following a two-day damages trial in Middlesex County Superior Court. The sum was for noneconomic damages. In accordance with prior trial proceedings in the case, only 40% of the award was apportioned to Heller, with the other 60% apportioned to the drag-racing driver who struck him. (In the prior trial, in 2016, the jury found Heller was negligent and proximately caused the accident. Included in the sum awarded to Agiz at that time was $4.5 million for medical expenses.)

Appeals were still pending until Agiz signed the agreement with Heller on July 23, according to a copy of the settlement agreement obtained by the Law Journal.

The terms included releasing Heller of all liability, which the company continued to dispute. In the document, Heller denied all allegations of negligence or other responsibility for drag racing on the property. Heller and its related entities are insured by Travelers, the document noted.

In a phone call Thursday, Agiz’s attorney, Bruce Nagel of Nagel & Rice in Roseland, confirmed that the case had settled but declined to comment further, citing a confidentiality agreement.

Steven Haddad of the Haddad Law Firm in Woodbridge, who originated the case, said, “I’m happy for my client.”

Heller was defended by David Dering of Leary, Bride, Mergner & Bongiovanni in Cedar Knolls. He didn’t return calls seeking comment.

After winning the $39 million verdict in February, Nagel called Agiz “one of the most inspirational men I’ve ever met in my life.”

“He’s worked to put himself through college. He wants to be an advocate for disabled people,” Nagel said at the time. “He’s an inspiration to everyone who meets him. He’s an absolutely extraordinary human being.”

In the first trial in the case, in 2016, the jury found Heller liable and awarded Agiz $4.5 million for medical expenses. The jury also awarded noneconomic damages, but Agiz’s counsel challenged that portion of the verdict—$2.3 million—on the basis that the jury failed to consider some of the judge’s instructions regarding calculating the present value of pain and suffering. The judge agreed, and granted a new trial. The defense appealed, but the Appellate Division in May 2018 affirmed and upheld the order for a new trial on noneconomic damages only. That led to the February 2019 trial.
