A red light runner. A business owner.
A jury that listened.

In March of 2021, our client's life was forever altered by a single, careless driver who ran a red light.

Our client was an entrepreneur and a go-getter, a self-made business owner with a passion for getting things done. On that day, everything came crashing down when a driver collided with our client's truck, causing a ripple effect that would change his life forever.

Despite the pain and hardships, our client never lost hope. He fought bravely through multiple surgeries:

The road to recovery was long and arduous, and the toll it took on his business was immense. He had to entrust the work he loved to others, and watch from the sidelines.

Our client refused to be counted out. He sought justice and turned to us to make it happen.

Through countless communications with the insurance companies, we knew they would never see him as he truly was. They would never hear his story the way it deserved to be heard. They would never value the case at what the case was actually worth.

So we took his case to trial.

The St. Louis County jury of 12 that heard our client's story was amazing and attentive throughout the entire process. Their dedication and commitment to their duties proved invaluable.

They awarded our client $10,000,000 for the life-altering injuries he suffered.

Thanks to them, our client can move forward with the acknowledgment he rightfully deserves.

Insurance companies do not see clients the way clients see themselves. The settlement offers were not going to capture the impact of this crash on the client's life, his business, or his future. The insurance company was operating from spreadsheets. The jury heard a person.

Permanent injury cases require trial preparation from day one. Multiple disk replacements. A lumbar fusion. Blood clots. These injuries had cascading effects on the client's life, and capturing all of them in a settlement demand requires the kind of medical and economic documentation that only happens when the case has been built for trial.

Trial-ready preparation produces trial-grade verdicts. The case did not settle for what the insurance company offered. It was tried, and the jury delivered $10 million.
