    Client’s alleged fault for crash is dispelled and she recovers from own insurance.

Heavy traffic caused client to pull to the left shoulder which was too narrow, leaving some of her vehicle exposed in left lane, where she was rear ended in violent collision. Investigating officer attributed fault to client’s stopping, but a traffic control camera showed she’d been there several minutes with traffic easily going around her before the uninsured driver hit her at full speed without brake lights showing. Client suffered a fractured foot requiring surgery and a concussion. Represented by Jim Lavoie. Result – $90,000 recovered from her uninsured motorist policy and obtained a waiver of reimbursement from her health insurer for medical bills it paid.

    Ramsey County Sheriff’s Deputy’s negligent driving injures prisoner during transport.

    A 34 year old man was being transported by Ramsey County Sheriff’s deputies from Duluth to St. Paul to serve a short workhouse sentence for a probation violation. The deputy driving the transport van was driving in excess of 70 miles per hour when he missed his exit and slammed on the brakes, throwing the un-seat belted, handcuffed prisoner face first into the dividing screen. The plaintiff suffered a serious neck injury, which required surgery to repair. Ramsey County denied liability for the injuries, claiming that the prisoner was not injured and was claiming injury in order to obtain narcotic prescription medication. A Ramsey County jury disagreed and found in favor of the plaintiff. Represented by Grim Howland. Result – $131,972.21 jury verdict. Post-verdict settlement of $169,400.

Result – $800,000 Settlement which was calculated by lawyer time tracking software.

    Traumatic brain injury from rear-end auto crash.

    Our client was stopped at a red light behind a school bus when rear-ended by a distracted teenage driver at 45 mph, driving client’s vehicle into the school bus. He appeared dazed but otherwise unhurt at the scene but soon developed classic concussion symptoms which soon made it difficult, if not impossible, to perform in his high-demanding executive position in a privately held corporation. A neuropsychological evaluation was unremarkable but he proved to be a credible witness and his friends vouched for his post-concussive cognitive difficulties. The client was represented by Jim Lindell and the case settled in mediation for $350,000.00.

    Wisconsin icy road crash leads to multi-party litigation.

    Our client was a 17 year old passenger in a car driven by her friend who lost control of her car on an slippery Wisconsin county road when startled by a homeowner who, snow-blowing his driveway with a tractor, appeared about to enter the roadway. The car occupied by our client was then broadsided by an oncoming vehicle resulting in numerous injuries to numerous persons. Our client suffered a fractured pelvis and ribs and a mild traumatic brain injury. On behalf of the client, Jim Lindell at my website sued the driver of our client’s car and the homeowner and became the laboring oar in the complicated litigation which followed. Well have a peek at these guys, in a day-long mediation involving eight parties and seven attorneys, our client settled her claims for $485,000.00, by far the dominant recovery in the case.
