Our Results
Child Injury

We’ve collected millions for our clients.

We have been winning cases for injured children for 35 years in the pursuit of justice. Our greatest skill as lawyers is to know the families we represent. At our law firm we give a voice to the injured child. We want to make sure that an injured child not only recovers the damages they deserve but that it is set aside for their future, so we obtain court approval for annuities which can be used for college.

Our firm obtained a settlement of $125,000 with out court for her client who was a passenger in a vehicle when she was rear ended on the highway.

Client sustained injuries to her neck, shoulders and hands. She had had prior neck surgery before this wreck, but the wreck made her much worse. We referred her to a neurosurgeon. She was employed and we collected her lost wages. Her vehicle was totaled. She was wearing her seat belt but still sustained major damage. She had two children with minor injuries because they were belted. We collected her lost wages and PIP without charge. We were able to collect $7,500 for each child who had minor injuries plus PIP and medical bills. A college fund was established for each child.  The defendant was driving a large truck for his employer while drunk.

Our client was a young woman who was hit head on by another vehicle and another passenger was killed. Our office travelled to see her in the hospital where she was admitted for a fractured jaw and ankles. Our investigators were at the scene immediately photographing and interviewing witnesses. Our client was a child so we established an annuity for college and funds after she turned 18.

$105,000 – Facial injuries – College fund

A 9 year old girl was a passenger in a van when her head went though the windshield since she had not been belted. Her settlement was placed in a trust fund and annuity for her to go to college and have a settlement when she is grown.

There is no guarantee of recovery in every case because each case has its own specific factual and legal circumstances.
