Our client was traveling lawfully in traffic when a commercial vehicle driver failed to maintain control of the vehicle and violently collided with our client’s vehicle.
The force of the impact caused our client’s vehicle to spin across multiple lanes of traffic and collide with the highway barrier, requiring emergency responders to transport the client from the scene for immediate trauma evaluation and medical treatment.
As a result of the collision, the client suffered serious and permanent injuries, including traumatic injuries to the head, neck, and spine, requiring extensive medical care, diagnostic imaging, specialist treatment, and a prolonged course of rehabilitation. The injuries significantly affected the client’s ability to work and perform daily activities.

Car Accident
Settlement of a motor vehicle crash case arising from a rear-end collision in Miami-Dade County, Florida, along US-1 near Coral Gables.
Read More
Our client was stopped in heavy traffic when the at-fault driver failed to slow down and violently struck the rear of the client’s vehicle, causing a multi-vehicle crash and significant vehicle damage.
As a result of the collision, the client suffered serious cervical and lumbar spine injuries, including disc herniations with nerve root compression confirmed by MRI imaging. The client experienced persistent neck and lower back pain radiating into the arms and legs, numbness, weakness, and limited mobility.
The client initially attempted conservative treatment including physical therapy, chiropractic care, and pain management, but continued to experience debilitating symptoms. Due to the severity of the spinal injuries and ongoing nerve compression, the client ultimately underwent cervical spine surgery, including a cervical discectomy and fusion, to relieve pressure on the affected nerves.
After presenting the medical evidence, surgical records, and documentation of the long-term effects of the injuries, the case ultimately resolved for $890,000.

Slip & Fall
Settlement of a premises liability case arising from a serious slip-and-fall incident at a busy retail shopping center in Pembroke Pines, Broward County, Florida.
Read More
Our client was walking through the store during normal business hours when she unexpectedly stepped onto a large pool of clear liquid that had been left on the polished tile floor without any warning cones, barricades, or cleanup by store staff. With no opportunity to regain her footing, she slipped violently and crashed onto the floor in front of nearby customers.
The impact caused immediate and severe pain in her shoulder and knee, leaving her unable to stand without assistance. Emergency medical evaluation and subsequent orthopedic care revealed a significant rotator cuff tear in the shoulder along with internal damage to the knee joint. The injuries caused persistent pain, weakness, and limited mobility that made routine activities extremely difficult.
Despite months of conservative treatment including physical therapy, medication, and injections, her symptoms failed to improve. The shoulder injury ultimately required arthroscopic surgery to repair the torn rotator cuff, followed by an extended rehabilitation period to restore strength and range of motion.
An investigation into the incident uncovered surveillance footage and maintenance records showing the hazardous condition had existed for a substantial period of time without any warning or corrective action by store employees. After presenting this evidence and the client’s extensive medical documentation, the case ultimately resolved for $640,000.

The crash occurred when the at-fault driver attempted to turn across the bicycle lane without yielding, cutting directly into the cyclist’s path and causing a violent collision.
The impact threw our client from the bicycle onto the pavement, resulting in multiple traumatic injuries, including injuries to the shoulder, wrist, and cervical spine. Emergency responders transported the client from the scene for immediate medical treatment. Subsequent diagnostic imaging confirmed significant orthopedic injuries, causing persistent pain, reduced range of motion, and limitations affecting the client’s ability to perform everyday activities.
The client underwent extensive orthopedic treatment and rehabilitative care, including months of physical therapy to address the injuries sustained in the crash. Despite treatment, the injuries caused ongoing physical limitations and significantly disrupted the client’s ability to work and maintain an active lifestyle.
After presenting the evidence of the driver’s negligence and the full extent of the client’s injuries and damages, the case ultimately resolved for $525,000.

Read More
The crash occurred when an intoxicated driver traveling westbound failed to stop at a posted stop sign and struck our client’s vehicle traveling northbound at a high rate of speed. The force of the collision lifted the client’s pickup truck off the roadway and caused it to overturn after striking a nearby concrete light pole. The at-fault driver was later arrested and charged with Driving Under the Influence causing injury as a result of the crash.
Because the negligent driver did not carry bodily injury liability insurance, the claim was pursued through the client’s stacked Uninsured Motorist coverage. As a result of the crash, the client suffered multiple injuries including concussion and traumatic brain injury, requiring emergency medical care and ongoing treatment. The defense contested the nature and extent of the client’s injuries throughout the litigation.
After a lawsuit was filed in Gilchrist County, Florida, the case ultimately resolved for $390,000 following mediation.

At the time of the incident, our client was walking through a designated pedestrian area when the driver, while attempting to pull through a parking space and enter the main drive aisle, failed to keep a proper lookout and struck the pedestrian at low speed but with enough force to throw our client onto the pavement.
The collision caused our client to suffer serious orthopedic injuries, including trauma to the knee, hip, and lower back, along with painful soft tissue injuries that made walking, standing, and climbing stairs extremely difficult. Emergency medical care was required immediately after the incident, and follow-up treatment included orthopedic evaluation, diagnostic imaging, pain management, and a prolonged course of physical therapy.

As a result of the collision, our client sustained a serious injury to his dominant right wrist, causing ongoing pain, loss of strength, and significant functional limitations affecting daily activities and work.
Orthopedic evaluation and diagnostic imaging confirmed the severity of the injury, and our client ultimately required right wrist arthroscopy and De Quervain’s release surgery to address the traumatic damage. Despite months of medical documentation and clear evidence of injury, the insurance carrier initially offered only $29,000 to resolve the claim.
When the insurer refused to reasonably evaluate the claim, a lawsuit was filed in Miami-Dade County. Less than one month after the lawsuit was filed, the insurer tendered the full $250,000 policy limits to resolve the claim.

As a result of the crash, the client sustained a serious injury to her right shoulder, resulting in persistent pain, instability, and functional limitations. Despite extensive conservative treatment, including orthopedic care and physical therapy, her symptoms continued to worsen. She ultimately required arthroscopic shoulder surgery, which confirmed a posterior and inferior labral tear and capsular damage causing multidirectional shoulder instability.
A lawsuit was filed in Alachua County, Florida. Because the client’s damages exceeded the available liability coverage, claims were pursued against both the at-fault driver’s bodily injury insurance and the client’s underinsured motorist coverage. The case ultimately resolved for the available policy limits, including $100,000 in bodily injury coverage and $50,000 in underinsured motorist benefits, for a total recovery of $150,000.
