It’s pitch black dark on a rural stretch of interstate. A minute later, our clients violently crash into the bed of the truck, which was stained black with asphalt. The lights on the back of the truck were not visible due to the angle of the dump truck bed. Fortunately, our clients’ injuries were not life threatening but they did sustain serious and permanent injuries, including a mild traumatic brain injury and various orthopedic injuries that required surgeries.

$1.75 Million

Settlements in a Commercial Property Loss Case

Following a heavy rain, part of the roof collapsed at a local mall above our client’s beauty supply store. Damage from the roof collapse and the downpour of water that had collected on the roof before it fell, caused a total loss of our client’s inventory. The mall then refused to repair the roof in a timely manner. As a result, the beauty supply store went out of business. The owner of the mall refused to accept responsibility for its failure to maintain the roof. We filed suit on behalf of the beauty supply company against the owner of the mall. After several years of litigation and numerous depositions and court hearings, the parties were ready for trial. Although the insurance companies for the mall refused to make a reasonable settlement offer for years, they finally agreed to pay $1.75 million just two days before trial. Had our firm not shown the willingness and ability to try the case, the case would never have settled for such a large amount of money.

$1.6 Million Settlement in a Truck Accident Case

$1.6 Million

Settlement in a Truck Accident Case

Our client was driving a car at night in the rain and was travelling through an intersection when an 18-wheeler turned left in front of him. The driver of the 18-wheeler claimed that our client did not have his lights on and was speeding. Our client had also consumed some alcohol earlier in the evening but was not cited or arrested for DUI. Our client sustained serious injuries that affected his ability to work and also caused constant pain.

Early in the litigation the trucking company offered $1 million to settle the case but, on our advice, the client turned down the offer. Later, we requested documentation from the trucking company, including driver logs and GPS data. By comparing the logbooks with the GPS data, we were able to establish that the truck driver had fraudulently falsified his logbook and had exceeded hours of service regulations for commercial truck drivers, both of which violated federal law. We also took depositions of the trucking company executives to show that they should have been aware of the violation.

With this additional information, as well as with the help of experts we hired to calculate both future lost wages and future medical expenses, we were able to achieve a settlement of $1.6 million.

Settlement for Patient Seriously Injured After Falling Out of Hospital Bed

In this case, we represented the family of an elderly patient who had been admitted to a Memphis, Tennessee hospital due to complications from congestive heart failure. The patient’s lower extremities were weak, and she could not walk without assistance. The patient was given powerful drugs by the hospital staff, which caused her to become disoriented and to hallucinate. The nursing staff at the hospital knew that the patient was at high risk of falling and even witnessed her attempting to get out of bed several times before her fall. However, the staff chose not to utilize bed alarms or wrist restraints and failed to even notify her physicians of her changing medical condition. As a result of the negligence of the nursing staff, the patient attempted to get out of bed unassisted and fell. The fall resulted in a neck fracture. The patient had to undergo surgery, wear a painful neck brace for months, and undergo rehabilitation for several months. As a result of the fall, she was never able to return home. She died several months later in a nursing home. The hospital paid $550,000 to settle the case.

$300,000

Our client was side swiped on the interstate by a tractor trailer. The damage to the vehicle was minor. Our client was from out-of-state and was headed to a business meeting at the time of the wreck. She continued to the meeting and did not go to the ER or even seek treatment on the day of the wreck.  When she returned home, she sought treatment for neck and shoulder pain.

The trucking company hand-picked a local doctor, who is known for always testifying for the defense, to say that our client was not really hurt and if she was, it was not caused by the wreck. We used our client’s own treating physicians to support our case. They testified that our client suffered a permanent injury and would have to deal with intermittent pain the rest of her life. The medical bills for our client only came to about $12,000 and the trucking company offered $30,000 to settle. At trial, we obtained a jury verdict of $300,000 – 10 times the settlement offer.

$250,000 Car Crash Settlement Against Tennessee Ambulance Company

$250,000

Car Crash Settlement Against Tennessee Ambulance Company

Our client was being transported from a rural hospital in Tennessee to a metropolitan hospital to undergo non-emergency surgery. As his scheduled surgery was non-emergent, the ambulance driver had no reason to drive at a high rate of speed, use sirens, or travel through red lights. Moreover, the policies and procedures of the ambulance company stated that non-emergent patients should not be transported at a high rate of speed. Despite the policy, the ambulance was speeding through a red light and was not using sirens or emergency lights. The ambulance struck another vehicle in the intersection, injuring our client (the passenger in the ambulance) as well as the occupants of the other vehicle. Our client suffered broken bones and required substantial medical treatment.

$250,000 Insurance Policy Limits Settlement for Motorcycle Crash

$250,000

Insurance Policy Limits Settlement for Motorcycle Crash

In this Tennessee motorcycle wreck case, our client was traveling down a two-lane highway in Kingsport, Tennessee. He was following the speed limit as well as all other traffic laws. As he was passing through an intersection where he had the green light, a car traveling in the opposite direction failed to yield and turned directly into him. The impact caused our client to be thrown from the motorcycle into the roadway. He suffered several broken bones, a punctured lung, strained muscles, and road rash. The wreck could have been avoided if the at fault driver had been paying attention to the road at the time of the crash. We were able to reach a $250,000 settlement on behalf of our client, which represented all available insurance coverage.

$225,000 Car Crash Settlement for Wrongful Death

$225,000

Car Crash Settlement for Wrongful Death

In this case, we represented the family of an elderly woman who was killed in an auto accident. The defendant attempted to argue that because our client was in her 90s at the time of her death, that her life was not worth very much money. As a result, we set the case for trial and prepared to argue the case to a jury. Just three days before trial, however, the defendant offered $225,000 to settle the case, which our clients accepted.

$136,000 Arbitration Award Against Nationwide Insurance Company

$136,000

Arbitration Award Against Nationwide Insurance Company

We recently represented an auto accident client against Nationwide Insurance Company. In this case, the person who caused the wreck only had $50,000 in coverage, which was not enough to cover the injuries to our client. Fortunately for the client, she had uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage with limits of $100,000. We have previously explained the importance of uninsured motorist coverage in Tennessee.

Despite the coverage and despite the fact that the other driver was clearly at fault (our client had the green light and the other driver turned in front of her), Nationwide would not accept full responsibility for the damage and would not offer a fair amount to settle the case. We made repeated efforts to settle the case with Nationwide for policy limits, but Nationwide refused. Nationwide even blamed our client for causing the wreck and claimed that her treating doctor lied about the reasonableness of her medical treatment. Nationwide’s position was completely unsupported by the evidence.

The arbitrator rejected Nationwide’s claims and ruled that our client suffered damages of approximately $136,000, which is $56,000 more than Nationwide offered to pay. Nationwide will now be forced to pay the full coverage amount, as well as the arbitrator’s fees and costs.

Although we are proud of the result we obtained, it is a shame that Nationwide and its lawyers would not act reasonably and honor their customer’s claim.

$65,000 Car Crash Verdict Against the City of Memphis for Client Hit by Police Car

$65,000

Car Crash Verdict Against the City of Memphis for Client Hit by Police Car

This accident occurred around 10:00 p.m. on Weaver road in Memphis, Tennessee. We represented a lady who was T-boned by a Memphis police officer after she pulled out of a convenience store.

Witnesses at the scene testified that the Memphis Police officer was traveling at an extreme high rate of speed, around 80 mph. The speed limit was 40 mph. Witnesses also said that the officer was not using his headlights or blue lights. The officer testified that he was traveling the speed limit and that his headlights were on.

As soon as we were contacted by our client, we instructed the City of Memphis to preserve all relevant evidence from the wreck, including the headlights from the squad car. When we went to inspect the police vehicle at a later date, however, we found that the headlights had been removed. The trial court later ruled that the City of Memphis improperly destroyed evidence and ordered the City to pay for certain attorney fees and deposition fees.

After a three-day trial, the judge ruled that the City of Memphis police officer was at fault for the accident, although the Court also found our client to be partially to blame. The City ultimately paid approximately $65,000 for medical bills, pain and suffering, attorney fees, court costs, and discretionary costs.

At the time of the trial, the officer had not been disciplined or punished in any way by the City of Memphis for his negligent conduct.

Our client was serving time in prison for a non-violent crime. He was dependent upon prescription medication in order to control a chronic medical condition. Over the course of several days, the prison medical providers deprived our client of his medication, which resulted in severe and permanent injuries. To make matters worse, the prison medical providers falsified medical records in order to cover-up the mistreatment. We were able to uncover the misconduct only after filing a lawsuit, requesting records, and taking numerous depositions. As a result of our efforts, we were able to expose the egregious misconduct and achieve a settlement for the available insurance policy limits.

Confidential

Legal Malpractice Settlement for Car Crash Victim

Our client hired an attorney to handle his personal injury claim following an auto accident. The attorney filed the case on time, but failed to serve the defendant driver in a timely manner. As a result, our client’s auto accident lawsuit was dismissed, and our client was not able to collect money for his auto accident lawsuit. To make matters worse, the attorney lied about the status of the case and led the client to believe that his case had not been dismissed. We sued the negligent attorney and were able to achieve a sizeable confidential settlement.
