Results MATTER — Our Track Record Speaks:*

• $22,500,000 settlement for a bicycle rider struck by a driver (2025) — the driver only had a $25,000 policy limit, but because she was driving within course and scope of her job, we secured the larger settlement

• $7,000,000 for a college student who fell more than two stories in a newly built campus auditorium
