Seven Figure Trucking Accident Settlement

Attorneys Jorge Mares and Sommer Hazel along with their team have fought (and won) the good fight AGAIN! Our clients unavoidably hit the defendant tractor-trailer driver after the driver fell asleep, ran off the road, and overcorrected causing the truck to lay down blocking all lanes of traffic in an unlit location. The clients were traveling on the blocked road when they slammed into the truck at 55 miles per hour.

After a thoroughly researched and hard-fought battles with not just the defense, but the insurance companies, Jorge’s unrelenting litigation skills ended up proving victorious for our clients. The team paired iron clad arguments with irrefutable evidence that allowed our clients to win a seven-figure settlement.

This win that left no penny unclaimed was due to the experience and fortitude our team has, and we are so proud of their litigation skills. Great job, team!

$4,850,000 Maritime Death Settlement

We are proud to announce a significant victory in a maritime death case, securing a recovery of **$4,850,000** for the grieving mother of a loved one lost in a tragic accident at sea.

This case was a true test of perseverance for our attorneys Jennifer Neal, Caleb Rackley, Lance Kimbro, and their team. The defendants attempted to play “shell games,” shifting blame and complicating the litigation at every turn. The at-fault party fought tooth and nail, trying to confuse the facts and distract from the truth. Their tactics made the case incredibly complex, adding undue stress to an already heartbroken family.

Despite the challenges, our team was undeterred. Through meticulous investigation, strategic legal maneuvering, and relentless advocacy, we were able to uncover the facts that would hold the responsible parties accountable.

In the end, through our steadfast work ethic, our team was able to obtain the best recovery possible, ensuring that our client — a mother who had already suffered an unimaginable loss — received the financial support she deserves. This settlement brings some measure of justice and closure to the family in a case that could have easily slipped through the legal cracks.

To our client: while no amount of money can replace the loss of a loved one, we hope this settlement provides some comfort and helps you begin to heal. We will always fight for justice, no matter how complicated the path may be.

We are so proud of this team and their relentless pursuit of justice. Great job everyone!

Legal Strategies to Protect and Maximize Compensation for Pre-Existing Injuries

In personal injury cases, plaintiffs often enter litigation with preexisting conditions that can complicate the assessment of damages. However, when a defendant’s actions aggravate an existing injury, it is crucial that the plaintiff receives compensation for the full impact of the worsened condition.

Entire Policy Limits Auto Accident Settlement

Our client was traveling down the road in Austin, Texas when the Defendant driver suddenly attempted to make a right turn from an outside left lane, violently crashing into our client. The reckless and irresponsible actions of the Defendant driver required our client to undergo years worth of extensive medical treatment, including multiple surgeries.

Compounding our client’s injuries further, Defendants in this case failed to offer reasonable compensation to the client, fighting responsibility every step of the way. The Defendants’ opposition to taking responsibility resulted in the prior law firm taking on our client’s case, but dropping the case once it became apparent that it would be a long, arduous road ahead in order to get the client the justice he so rightfully deserved.

Then, Jorge Mares and David Fuentes stepped in. Upon taking the case, Jorge and David worked tirelessly, and aggressively, to maximize pressure on the Defendants and get our client the justice he had long been entitled to. Within a few months of taking on the case, Defendants tendered almost the entirety of their policy limits.
