An elderly Madison County nursing home resident suffered injuries in a terrible fire ant attack. After an investigation, claims were filed against both the nursing home and its pest control company. The case involved a team effort. While pursuing personal injury claims in Madison County, the team also successfully defended efforts by the pest control company in Federal Court for arbitration. At trial, a Madison County jury awarded a verdict for $5,350,000.00. After the verdict, the attorney team successfully defended appeals to The Alabama Supreme Court by both the nursing home and pest control company to preserve the funds recovered.

The settlements recovered for the injured driver exceeded $1,930,000.00
Two industrial workers in Decatur fell when an overhead crane struck their extended scissors lift. Both men suffered significant injury. The resulting investigation raised serious safety questions concerning the overhead crane operation. Claims were filed in Morgan County on behalf of both men.

A commercial truck driver suffered injuries when struck by another vehicle on the Interstate. We successfully recovered a settlement from the driver who caused the collision. Then, we successfully sued and obtained a judgment against the insurance carrier which provided uninsured / underinsured motorist coverage to the client.

A local construction worker fell when his extended scissor lift toppled. The worker suffered severe injuries. Following his injuries, we helped the injured worker navigate the difficult process to obtain good medical care in his workers’ compensation claim. When the workers’ compensation carrier refused to compensate him properly for his resulting disability, we went to trial. The verdict at trial in the workers’ compensation case found the worker disabled and provided approximately $500,000.00 in benefits. We then aggressively pursued additional claims against the general contractor responsible for safety on the construction site. When that defendant also refused to accept responsibility, we went to trial again. At the end of a week-long jury trial, the jury began considering compensatory and punitive damages far in excess of the workers’ compensation benefits. At one point during jury deliberations, the jury returned to the courtroom and asked the judge to re-read the jury instructions concerning the process for awarding punitive damages. At this point in the deliberations, the case settled for an additional confidential amount.
The beneficiary of a $500,000.00 life insurance policy sought help when the insurance company refused to pay her claim. The insurance company questioned her status as a beneficiary. After investigating the issues, we represented the beneficiary in the court proceedings and helped her recover the available benefits.
