A self-employed cancer survivor was on her way to work in an elevator when it stopped several inches short of the eleventh floor of a downtown office building.

TBI - Traumatic Brain Injury

An employed man in his fifties took his wife to the home and garden show on a Saturday afternoon. The weekend outing was proving to be fun and pleasant until a vendor’s 55lb overhead sign suddenly and without warning fell and hit the man on the head, knocking him out.

The vendor’s insurance adjuster encouraged the injured husband to settle right away by accepting payment of the few medical bills he incurred to be checked out by his doctor. He and his family asked us what they should do. He looked and acted fine after the accident which was confirmed by the adjuster’s surveillance.

Concerned he may have sustained a TBI we encouraged him not to accept the adjuster’s settlement offer and to let us review his medical records and arrange for him to be examined by a Board Certified Neurologist specializing in TBI. Often, TBI symptoms can manifest themselves months after the incident occurs.

While awaiting his neurological examination the head injury opened up a Pandora’s Box of issues which caused him to lose the well-paying job he worked for over ten years. Problems arose affecting his ability to cope with everyday activities.

Not only did the follow-up medical treatment prove beneficial and helpful but resulted in a confidential, yet substantial settlement of his claims.

Wrongful Death

A divorced father of three young children was killed when hit by an 18 wheeler as he worked a part time job. The children, and their mother, who was unemployed, lived with his mother (grandma). He spent little time with his family and contributed little to their support.

The insurance carrier for the trucking company believed the claim of the deceased family had little value since the deceased was rarely involved with his children and contributed little financial support. The insured carrier offered the survivors $500.00 to settle the case.

Grandma asked for our help. A suit was filed and discovery conducted. After a week-long trial, the jury returned a verdict for the Plaintiff’s family, awarding substantial money damages, including an award for punitive damages. Nonetheless, the Defendant chose to appeal the jury verdict, convinced the appellate court would reduce the damage and punitive award as unsubstantiated by the evidence. On appeal the jury verdict was upheld in its entirely and the insurance carrier paid the total amount of the verdict together with all interest and costs, totaling $700,000.00. The deceased’s family was able to stay in their house, keep the children in school and plan for the future.
