KIRSHENBAUM secures $90,000 settlement for
motorcycle
victim.
A 63 year old
gentleman was riding his motorcycle down a four-lane road. A car came
out of a
side street partially blocking his lane. He was able to make a quick
reaction
to avoid colliding with the other car; but was not able to keep the
bike up and
ultimately lost control seriously injuring him. The insurance carrier
fought
the claim arguing there was no contact between the vehicles. The
attorneys at KIRSHENBAUM &
KIRSHENBAUM through our
experience and experts, was able to secure a $90,000 settlement for our
extremely appreciative client.

KIRSHENBAUM secures $750,000 settlement
for
passenger victim involved in a car-truck collision.
A 31 year old
female was a passenger in a car when a tanker truck dangerously cut in
front of
them to take a left turn into a facility where he was making a
delivery. She
suffered serious injuries requiring surgery. The surgery involved the
insertion
of a steel rod secured to her thigh with 13 screws. She could no longer
perform
her job taking care of patients in the medical field. The attorneys at KIRSHENBAUM & KIRSHENBAUM with the
assistance
of our team of expert witnesses (economist and vocational
rehabilitation
expert) immediately after filing suit negotiated a settlement with the
insurance company for the sum of $750,000, providing our client the
money she
needed to take away her fears as to how she was going to be able to
provide for
herself.

KIRSHENBAUM secures $330,000 settlement
for
passenger victim involved in a one car collision.
A 21 year old
boy was a passenger in a car where the driver lost control, went off
the road
and crashed into a tree. The driver was killed. Three passengers were
all
seriously injured. Our client suffered life threatening internal
injuries
including third degree lacerations of his liver and kidney. He suffered
tremendous scarring to his body that will forever remind him of this
collision.
This case was particularly difficult in the respect that there were
multiple
parties seeking to recover from the same insurance policies. The attorneys at KIRSHENBAUM
& KIRSHENBAUM were able to guide our client through the
complex
legal maze of the insurance policies and through a successful mediation
we were
able to secure our client a settlement of $330,000. |
