Case Results

We encourage you to review some of our previous successes that we’ve achieved on behalf of our clients. We fight for the best possible outcome for every client we represent; however; the outcome of an individual case depends on a variety of factors unique to that case.

Near Madison, Wisconsin a young woman was rear ended by a semi-tractor trailer at highway speed and tragically died at the scene. We represented the young woman’s estate and her parents in a wrongful death case against the truck driver, the trucking company, and auto maker. The case involved an unqualified driver as well as a trucking company that either failed to do a proper background check or knowingly allowed an unqualified driver to operate.

We consulted and retained top industry experts to investigate and provide opinions. We successfully argued that the truck driver and company were negligent as well as showed that the auto maker was responsible for a safety equipment failure that may have helped save our client’s life. After an initial low-ball settlement offer based on the parties disputing their level of liability, we effectively negotiated a total settlement of $3,596,360.

Our client was a young child who was a back-seat passenger in a car being driven by a family member on a rural road in central Wisconsin.

Our client was driving on a state highway in rural Wisconsin when an oncoming vehicle crossed the center line and hit her vehicle head-on. She suffered very serious injuries, including fractured lower legs that impaired her mobility and caused chronic pain. The driver had $500,000 in liability insurance coverage and a $1,000,000 umbrella insurance policy. We successfully collected the policy limits of $1,500,000 for our client. In addition, we aggressively pursued a claim for prejudgment interest over and above the $1,500,000 insurance policy limits. We successfully obtained a $500,000 payment of prejudgment interest in addition to the $1,500,000 policy limits settlement for a total settlement of $2,000,000.

Our client was a woman in her early fifties, who was driving down a state highway on a dark morning in central Wisconsin. She was unfortunately struck by a semi-tractor trailer, whose driver was backing it across the highway into the truck company’s yard. Due to the impact, she sustained a mild or moderate traumatic brain injury.

The truck driver and the trucking company disputed their liability and argued that she was responsible for hitting the tractor trailer. However, after the discovery and litigation process we demonstrated that the truck driver and the trucking company were liable because the backing-up maneuver was unusually dangerous due to improper reflectors on the truck. We utilized a careful reconstruction of the accident scene and showed that our client could not have seen the tractor trailer prior to the collision given the dark conditions, poor reflectors, and reaction time estimates. In the end, we successfully achieved a settlement for $1,500,000.
