Many of my clients, at the end of their case, often tell me that they were not going to pursue their case initially. They tell me that once they realized the insurance company did not care about them, as their medical bills soared, and their injuries just got worse, is when they decided to contact my office.
Here are a few success stories from my firm, in representing people who initially thought their case was not worth pursuing:
-Woman goes to restaurant where she sustains very bad knee injuries, requiring surgery. Case settles for $150,000.00;
-Woman slips and falls outside a store and breaks one of her ankles, requiring surgery. Case settles for $75,000.00;
-Man is injured on a bicycle when the operator of a motor vehicle suddenly opens up his driver's side door. Case settles for policy limit of $50,000.00.
Please know that these examples are intended for informational purposes only. My firm does not and cannot guarantee any specific results as each and every case is unique with its own facts and circumstances.
If you think you may have a case, we would be happy to give you a free consultation to explain what your rights are.
i was asked to shovel a roof and would be paid after the job was done so we shoveled the roof up 4 ft. as asked by the owner and thought we were done ,then the owner pulled up in his truck and asked us to go 2-3 more feet we got around 2 feet done and i slipped and fell off the roof and sustained a pilon fracture of my left ankle i was transported by ambulance to the hospital I found out that there was no workers comp insurance ,I am not sure if the owner can be sued as he told us to do more work, and i found out the owner did know that the sub contractor had no insurance. Is the owner responsible also there were no safety precautions taken for fall purposes.Can the business or the owner be sued for my injuriesR
