You know, one of the many cases that was memorable to myself and the staff was when we had a client who was a mom crossing the street as a pedestrian. She was hit and dragged over 20ft, and then the driver left the scene.
The police had a hard time locating the vehicle initially, and through the use of ring video, doorbell cameras, city cameras, and distinguishing markings on this person’s car, we were able to trace back the vehicle right to the owner.
Our client had substantial injuries from broken bones, scarring, permanent disfigurement, and lots of medical bills. It was awful.
She was dependent on the help of many loved ones for her everyday tasks, and she was unable to do the work that she usually did for quite some time. We had them document everything. Her daily limitations, family members describing her cognitive changes, and her children’s testimony about her daily headaches and struggles was very important.
We were able to show how this accident threatened her entire career and her lifestyle. The case was resolved for seven figures. And, the important lesson you can take away from this is never accept the insurance company’s first assessment of your injuries and make sure to hire a firm that knows how to maximize your damages and how to properly present your case.
