$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!

Rideshare Auto Accident Settlement

Rideshares are supposed to be a safe alternative to driving. The rider enters the vehicle under the assumption that the driver is not impaired and will drive cautiously, but that does not always happen.

Our client was a backseat passenger in a rideshare vehicle when the driver pulled out from a stop sign into cross traffic causing an accident. The driver was functioning on less than an adequate amount of sleep as there was evidence that he drove until after 2 am the previous shift and began driving again at 7 am that same day up until 6 pm when the crash occurred. On top of the sleep deprivation impairment from the driver, he also failed to ensure that our client was properly belted in before departing which resulted in our client experiencing head and neck injuries from the accident.

Attorneys Jennifer Neal, Caleb Rackley, and Jessica Peisen along with their team immediately got to work when our client called. They immersed themselves in all the difficult to navigate driver policies for rideshares and built a strong case foundation for our client. Their hard work paid off when they were able to settle this case for high six figures ensuring our client received justice.

Remember that driving impaired does not always mean under the influence of a substance, sometimes lack of sleep can impair judgment as well. Great job team and keep fighting the good fight!

Trucking Accident Settlement

Neglecting to maintain 18-wheelers and train drivers can have catastrophic results. While traveling up a hill, an 18-wheeler driver lost power to his tractor-trailer. Rather than pulling over, the driver decided to reverse his vehicle down a hill. To make matters worse, the driver backed his trailer in such a way that it blocked the oncoming lane of traffic. Our client was a passenger in another tractor-trailer that crested the hill and could not avoid colliding with the trailer obstructing their lane of travel. The resulting high-impact crash caused our client significant, debilitating injuries.

Through our team’s dedication, it was uncovered that both the tractor and trailer were in violation of safety standards, and the brakes on both were not properly maintained. Additionally, the defendant driver’s employer had not properly trained the driver on emergency maneuvers when power and brakes fail.

Our attorneys Jennifer Neal and Chloe Shrode along with their team ensured these companies were unable to escape their lack of diligence and held them accountable. After turning over every stone for this out-of-state accident that occurred in Georgia, our client received a settlement to aid her with the aftermath of these debilitating injuries. Way to be diligent, team!
