The following are just a brief sample of
results of the more than 2,000 personal injury,
crime victim's rights and wrongful death cases our
office has handled. In no way do they guarantee
results on future cases as each case is unique.
Wrongful Death
$1,000,000+ - Passenger was killed in
Miami when the driver fell asleep at the wheel and
slammed into a wall. The Defendant argued that she
would not have died if she was wearing a seat belt.
Policy limits from 4 insurance companies -
Young girl was killed when she fell in the street in
a small town in Florida and was run over by four
vehicles. We argued that it was not possible to
determine which vehicle killed our client and all
vehicles were liable.
Policy limits from 3 homeowner's policies
- 3 year old boy was killed when he burned to death
in a fire. The boy was staying overnight at a family
friend's house when an electrical cord backed up and
sparked a fire. We argued that the landlord failed
to maintain the electrical outlets and the tenant
negligently placed the cord under a table which
caused the outlet to overheat.
Policy limits from 2 homeowner's policies
- Young man was shot and killed when another man
allegedly tried to pass a gun to him. The police
refused to prosecute the shooter. We proved that the
gun was illegally stored in a home and was then
taken by the shooter who was a guest in the house.
The shooter claimed the gun accidentaly discharged.
Even though the State Attorney did not prosecute the
case, we were able to pursue a civil claim and
obtained a significant amount of money for our
client's mother.
Confidential Settlement - Man was killed
when another vehicle slammed into the rear of his
car. He died of multiple fractures and trauma.
Confidential Settlement - Young man was
shot and killed at a gas station in Ft Lauderdale as
he waited in his car. We proved that the crime could
have been prevented if the gas station had adequate
security.
Car Accidents and Personal Injury
Confidential Settlement - Handicapped man
was injured when his van was struck head on by a
drunk driver. The drunk driver died on impact. Our
client sustained brain damage and several fractures
in the crash.
$100,000.00 - Young girl underwent a
series of injections for back pain. Her injuries
were caused when a driver struck her vehicle.
$100,000.00 policy limit - A lady had back
injuries and underwent surgery after her car was
struck from behind by another vehicle.

laminectomy following a fall at a rental car
facility.
$175,000.00 - Client underwent a knee
arthroscopy after falling down steps in a Miami
hotel.
Crime Victim's Rights
Confidential Settlement - 7 year old girl
was molested by her neighbor in a mobile home park.
The park advertised a safe community and conducted
background checks on all residents. Our
investigation found that the molester had a prior
arrest for molestation. The park then recanted its
story and claimed that it "intended" on conducting
background checks, but had not implemented its
policy.
Confidential Settlement - Young
handicapped girl was molested in day care by the
school's janitor. A teacher caught the janitor in
the act and called the police. The State Attorney
dropped charges against the janitor because our
client was not competent to stand trial. Despite
this, we were able to prove the molestation through
the teacher and recovered a significant amount of
money for our client.
Confidential Settlement - A female
customer at a car dealership was sexually assaulted
by a car salesman. The State Attorney did not
prosecute the case. However, our investigation
revealed that another customer complained of similar
sexual misconduct against the same employee just one
year prior at the same dealership.
Confidential Settlement - Client was hit
by a drunk driver as she passed through an
intersection. The drunk driver tried to beat the
light and cut in front of our client. Our client
sustained serious back injuries.
Bad Faith Settlement - Client sustained
disc bulging and underwent physical therapy after
being struck by a drunk driver. The insurance
company paid more than the policy limit after we
proved that they acted in bad faith by failing to
settle the case for the policy limit when they could
have done so.
