Brain Injury; Defective Product; Minor Child |
|
Another attorney requested the assistance of our Firm in representing the parents of a child who had sustained a brain injury at a park when the defective flagpole on which she was swinging suddenly broke throwing her onto nearby rocks. After co-counsel had filed suit, the Firm conducted the investigation, retained an expert metallurgist, and took the depositions of the relevant parties. The park owner’s insurance carrier agreed at mediation to pay the settlement demand (insisting on confidentiality as to the amount). |

A grandmother was driving her grandson to dinner at a restaurant in North Atlanta when a truck towing a camper trailer ran a stop sign and collided with the Client’s vehicle, killing the grandmother and causing a brain injury to the grandson.

A computerized video game baseball bat came apart in mid-swing and struck the Client in the temple causing a mild-to-moderate brain injury with resulting headaches, memory, and concentration problems. Suit was filed in Scottsdale, Arizona, against the manufacturer of the faulty equipment, and a significant recovery was obtained for both the Client and his wife. The defective bats were recalled and taken off the market. |

Brain Injury; Premises Liability; Tree Removal (North Carolina) |
|
The Client suffered a significant brain injury, resulting in permanent disability, at a motel in North Carolina. As he was parking his car, a windstorm caused a tree to fall and crush the Client’s car. The Firm’s investigation proved that the tree had been diseased and that the corporation which owned and operated the property should have known that it posed a danger to visitors. The claim was settled with the corporation’s insurer at a mediation hearing. |

Brain & Spinal Cord Injury; Disability Insurance |
|
The Firm successfully sued the disability carrier which refused to reinstate monthly benefits to its insured who had been injured, then returned to work, and then was discharged by the employer. A lump sum settlement was recovered for the Client and invested in a trust which pays his monthly benefits. |
