Our client was a woman in her fifties who lived in a Pennsylvania group home. She had an intellectual disability and relied on staff for the ordinary parts of daily life.
We built a stronger case and secured compensation that fully accounted for the medical expenses, lost income, and future recovery needs.
One morning, our client boarded the group home’s transport van to get to an appointment. The van drove through a construction zone, and the driver hit a backhoe. Our client was gravely injured and had to be rushed to the hospital.
Within days of the crash, we were sending preservation letters so the evidence stayed intact, getting the van secured in storage, following the police investigation, and putting an investigator on the scene to collect security and doorbell video while it still existed.
Within days of the crash, we sent preservation letters to keep the evidence intact and had the van secured in storage. We followed the police investigation closely and put an investigator on the scene to collect security and doorbell footage before it could be lost. We also brought in engineers to reconstruct the collision and a physician to explain our client’s injuries.
Four separate defendants, from private companies to a state agency, shared some connection to the crash. Rather than accept responsibility, each one pointed to someone else.
The first offer to settle the case was $100,000.
After we built the file and established the facts of what really happened, the defendants came to the table for a two-day mediation, a private process where both sides present their case to a neutral person who works to resolve it.
As a result, we recovered $1.1+ million, which was 11 times the opening offer.
No settlement could ever undo what happened to our client. What it did was make sure her injuries were taken seriously and answered in full. That is the standard we bring to every case: thorough preparation and a refusal to accept less than what our clients deserve.
