Our client, a hairdresser, was bitten by a dog. The owners initially misrepresented the facts to deny liability. Despite minor medical bills ($8,000), we focused on the significant emotional distress from the resulting scar and its impact on her profession, settling the case for $125,000.
Our client was struck on the 405. Despite an incomplete police report and a denied claim, we litigated the case, securing the $15,000 at-fault policy limit. Following the client’s subsequent shoulder surgery, we also obtained a $100,000 UIM settlement.

Our client, a passenger in her boyfriend’s vehicle, suffered a broken arm. The insurance company’s best pre-litigation offer was only $27,000. We filed a lawsuit, and shortly after our client’s deposition, the case settled for the $100,000 policy limits.
Our client was rear-ended while stopped in traffic on Sierra Highway in Santa Clarita. Before trial, the insurance company’s final offer was a fraction of what the case was worth. Rather than settle for that number, we took the case to a Los Angeles County jury, which returned a verdict in our client’s favor after a four-day trial. The defense moved for a new trial and the court denied it, then let the appeal deadline pass, making the judgment final. Our client’s total recovery came to roughly eight times the insurance company’s highest pre-trial offer.
