$7,093,511 for Pedestrian Struck by Vehicle
Our client was struck by a motor vehicle while crossing Cabot Street in Beverly, MA. This caused her to suffer severe injuries, including fractured ribs, arm, leg, shoulder, and nerve damage.
She was hospitalized for several months, incurring nearly $1 million in medical bills and over $125,000 in lost wages. The defense argued that it was a dark, rainy night and that she crossed outside a designated crosswalk. Through thorough litigation, we obtained a judgment of $6,108,483.08, which, with pre-judgment interest, totaled $7,093,511.64.
$1,200,000 for Serious Motorcycle Crash
While riding on a main roadway with the right of way, an experienced motorcyclist in his 30s was struck by a vehicle that ran a stop sign. He sustained severe leg injuries requiring multiple surgeries. We obtained a $1,200,000 settlement from the at-fault driver’s insurance to cover his extensive medical treatment and recovery.
$290,000 for Motor Vehicle Collision Injuries
We were hired by a 77-year-old man from New Hampshire who was involved in a head-on collision when another driver crossed the double yellow lines. Although his seat belt prevented further injury, airbags deployed and caused friction burns to his legs and shin, requiring a skin graft. The at-fault driver’s insurance disputed the injury, attributing it to pre-existing venous issues and the client’s smoking.
We successfully proved that the injuries were directly caused by the collision and secured the full policy limits of $100,000 from the first insurer. We then uncovered a second policy and recovered an additional $190,000, which resulted in a total settlement of $290,000 for our client.
$250,000 for Car Crash in Massachusetts
Our client was struck by a vehicle that ran a stop sign, causing her car to spin and crash into a tree. She suffered a serious femur fracture as a result of the impact. We secured a $250,000 settlement, the full amount of the available insurance coverage, to compensate her for her injuries and recovery.
$250,000 for College Student Injured in Car Crash
While driving through an intersection during spring break, a college student was struck by a truck, breaking his collarbone and requiring surgery. The truck driver’s insurance initially claimed their driver had a green light, disputing liability.
By retaining a crash reconstruction expert, we proved the truck was traveling nearly twice the speed limit and ran a red light. The case settled shortly after filing suit for the full available insurance coverage of $250,000.
$230,000 for Passenger Injured When Driver Had a Seizure
Our client was a passenger when the driver suffered a seizure, causing a serious crash that left our client with a leg fracture requiring surgery. The driver’s insurance initially threatened to claim a “sudden medical emergency” defense to avoid liability.
Through careful review of the driver’s prior medical records and medications, we proved the driver knew or should have known the risk of having a seizure while driving. The insurance company ultimately paid the full policy limits, resulting in a $230,000 settlement for our client.
$200,000 for Passenger Injured in Two-Car Collision
A passenger in a vehicle that turned left in front of another car suffered severe injuries requiring hospitalization. The first insurance company offered its policy limit of $100,000, but we determined the second vehicle’s unsafe speed also contributed to the crash.
After filing a lawsuit and negotiating for nearly two years, we secured an additional $100,000 from the second insurer, which resulted in a total recovery of $200,000 for our client.
$150,000 for Auto Collision
Our firm advocated for a woman in her mid-40s who was T-boned while entering a parking lot. The at-fault driver denied responsibility, claiming our client’s prior injuries limited her damages. Through thorough discovery and advocacy, we proved the collision caused significant new complications and exacerbated her existing conditions. The case settled for $150,000 before trial.
$150,000 for Head-On Collision
Our client was driving around a bend on a sunny afternoon when a vehicle, struck in the rear by a truck, was pushed into her lane and collided with her car head-on. The impact caused significant vehicle damage and intruded into the passenger compartment, leaving our client unable to stand due to a broken ankle.
After filing suit, conducting discovery, and inspecting the accident scene, we established that the truck was prohibited in the area and the driver was unfamiliar with the route. Following two full days of mediation, the case settled for $150,000.
$140,000 for Motorcycle Accident
A motorcycle rider suffered a fractured clavicle and pelvis when a driver attempted an improper U-turn without checking for oncoming traffic. The insurance company initially tried to blame our client, claiming he was speeding.
After we filed a lawsuit and questioned the defendants, their argument was quickly dismissed. Our client made a swift recovery, and we secured a $140,000 settlement to compensate him for his injuries.
$100,000 for Passenger Injured in Motor Vehicle Crash
A 23-year-old male passenger suffered serious injuries when the driver lost control of the vehicle while “joyriding.” The car hit a guardrail and flipped, resulting in a fractured nose and ribs, a collapsed lung, and a fractured left hip. We successfully obtained a $100,000 settlement to cover his medical treatment and recovery.
$100,000 and $85,000 for Rear-End Car Crash
We took over two rear-end collision cases from a referring law firm after more than two years of no settlement offers. By conducting several depositions and aggressively advocating for our clients, we were able to secure quick settlements: $100,000 for the passenger and $85,000 for the driver.
$30,000 for Injury on Public Transportation
Our firm advocated for a 73-year-old woman who was injured while boarding public transportation. As she was about to sit, the train jolted and then stopped suddenly, causing her to fall. She sustained an impacted wrist fracture that required surgery and occupational therapy. We secured a $30,000 settlement to compensate her for her medical expenses and recovery.
Confidential Settlement for Fatal Motor Vehicle Crash
A devastating collision occurred when a truck crossed into our client’s lane, striking his car while he was driving with his children. He was ejected from the vehicle and later died from his injuries. The case was resolved at mediation against the truck driver and his company for a confidential amount without the need to file a lawsuit.
