- $1,625,000 | pedestrian accident- We were retained by an outside law firm after your client's pedestrian accident claim was originally denied. We investigated the accident and determined that the driver involved was negligent and entered into mediation with the insurance company, ultimately securing $1.625 million in compensation for our valued client.
- $1,500,000 | Personal injuries- Our injury lawyers represented a worker who suffered debilitating head injuries when a tree branch being cut by his employer fell on his head.
