Case Studies - Personal Injury and Negligence
Injury lawyers at Miller & Harrison, LLC frequently settle personal injury and negligence cases out of court - which is often in the best interest of clients - for amounts that vary widely, depending on the seriousness of the injury and the facts of each case. However, we will take a case to trial if it can't be settled for a reasonable and appropriate sum. In fact, our injury lawyers have a reputation for success among insurers and others when it comes to taking personal injury, negligence and insurance litigation cases to trial and winning large verdicts.
- For instance, our attorneys went to trial in a case alleging medical malpractice against a hospital in the death of a client's husband, who committed suicide within hours of his release from the hospital. The client recovered in excess of $1 million after we convinced a jury that the hospital allowed an unqualified psychiatric employee to carelessly determine that the patient was not likely to harm himself.
- In another case, we obtained a verdict of more than $1 million against the insurer of a building that suffered severe water damage, even though the building was only insured for $128,000. Through our presentation of the evidence at trial, the jury came to understand the insurance company's insolence and indifference in handling the claim, and awarded the substantial monetary award for emotional distress and punitive damages, in addition to the property damages.
- Drawing upon our expertise in livestock and horses, our attorneys defended a riding stable in a case so that the plaintiff was unable to recover any monetary award on claims while our client was awarded court costs and attorney fees totaling more than $50,000.
Miller & Harrison, LLC also has experience in handling automobile accident cases and recovering damages for injuries suffered from the negligence of other drivers. More personal injury claims are filed in the United States due to car accidents than any other type of accident. Damages recovered can range from a few thousand dollars to hundreds of thousands, based on the facts and extent of injuries.
