Example results

Results, told honestly. Including the ones that didn't go our way.

Most results pages only show the biggest numbers. These examples show the full picture: strong settlements, plus 5 examples that were modest or ended with no recovery. When there was no recovery, the client owed no fee.

Read this first: These are example results written for this sample website. They are not real cases, and the amounts are illustrations, not real verdicts or settlements. Every case is different, and past results do not guarantee or predict the outcome of any future case. Where an amount is shown, it is the gross figure before legal fees, case costs and liens.

Example results by case type

Example result Settled with three insurers

$1,200,000

Illustrative amount, not a real case

Rideshare passenger Car Accidents Tone: Favorable

Back-seat passenger in a highway pile-up

A 29-year-old graduate student needed spinal fusion surgery after a multi-car crash. Three insurers each blamed the others. We brought claims against all three layers of coverage.

Example result Settled after an independent MRI

$890,000

Illustrative amount, not a real case

Rear-end collision Car Accidents Tone: Favorable

Stopped at a light on Northern Boulevard

Two herniated discs and nerve pain for a 51-year-old MTA employee. The insurer's first offer was $19,000 for 'soft tissue only.' Independent imaging showed otherwise.

Example result Settled before trial

$430,000

Illustrative amount, not a real case

Pedestrian struck Car Accidents Tone: Favorable

Delivery van turned through a crosswalk

A 63-year-old crossing with the signal broke her hip. The van company said the driver was an 'independent contractor.' That defense failed once we got the routing-app records.

Example result Modest settlement

$24,500

Illustrative amount, not a real case

Low-speed rear-end Car Accidents Tone: Modest result

Neck and back strain after a fender-bender

A delivery driver had eight weeks of physical therapy after a low-speed crash. The injuries healed fully. The settlement covered what no-fault didn't, plus his missed shifts.

We told him early this would be a small case. It was, and it was fair.

Example result Lost at trial

No recovery

No fee and no costs owed

Car crash at trial Car Accidents Tone: No recovery

Jury found the injury didn't meet the 'serious injury' rule

The jury agreed the other driver caused the crash, but found the client's shoulder injury did not meet New York's serious injury threshold. She kept her no-fault benefits but recovered nothing more.

Because there was no recovery, she owed no fee and no case costs.

Example result Settled two weeks before trial

$2,400,000

Illustrative amount, not a real case

Truck crash Truck Accidents Tone: Favorable

Box truck ran a red light on Queens Boulevard

A 46-year-old school custodian broke his pelvis and needed shoulder surgery after a distribution company's truck hit his sedan. The carrier blamed 'sudden brake failure.' The truck's black-box data showed no braking at all.

Black-box data can be overwritten. The preservation letter went out on day two.

Example result Settled without a lawsuit

$310,000

Illustrative amount, not a real case

Tractor-trailer sideswipe Truck Accidents Tone: Modest result

Trailer drifted into a minivan on the Van Wyck

A driver needed knee surgery after a tractor-trailer drifted into her lane. Logs showed the trucker was within his legal driving hours, so fatigue wasn't the story. Lane-departure data from the truck still proved fault.

Not every truck case involves a rule break. Strong data can carry a case anyway.

Example result Settled in mediation

$975,000

Illustrative amount, not a real case

Stairwell fall Slip & Fall Tone: Favorable

Collapsed step in an unlit Bronx walk-up

A home health aide broke her ankle in two places on a staircase tenants had complained about for a year. The building's HPD violation history proved the landlord knew.

Example result Settled before trial

$760,000

Illustrative amount, not a real case

Sidewalk defect Slip & Fall Tone: Favorable

Raised sidewalk slab outside a commercial building

A retired teacher shattered her wrist on a sidewalk that had been reported twice. The owner blamed the City, so we filed a protective notice of claim within 90 days while we proved otherwise.

Example result No recovery

No recovery

No fee and no costs owed

Store fall Slip & Fall Tone: No recovery

Slipped on a spilled drink in a supermarket aisle

Store video showed the drink was spilled about forty seconds before the fall, too soon for staff to have known. Without notice, New York law did not support the claim.

We explained why in writing, closed the file and charged nothing.

Example result Settled before trial

$425,000

Illustrative amount, not a real case

Negligent security Premises Liability Tone: Favorable

Assault in a lobby with a lock broken for months

A night-shift nurse was attacked inside her building's lobby. The front door lock had been reported broken in fourteen work orders over five months, and the lobby light was out.

The tenants' own repair requests were the strongest evidence in the case.

Example result Settled without trial

$540,000

Illustrative amount, not a real case

Ceiling collapse Premises Liability Tone: Favorable

Bathroom ceiling came down after ignored leaks

A tenant suffered a concussion and neck injuries when a waterlogged ceiling fell. Time-stamped repair requests in the building's portal, all ignored, proved the landlord knew.

Example result Paid by homeowners insurance

$165,000

Illustrative amount, not a real case

Dog bite (child) Dog Bites Tone: Favorable

Neighbor's dog bit a nine-year-old's cheek

Two other families had complained about the dog lunging at children. We waited until a plastic surgeon could assess the scar at twelve months before valuing the claim.

The neighbors never paid out of pocket. Their homeowners policy covered it.

Example result Modest settlement

$38,500

Illustrative amount, not a real case

Dog bite Dog Bites Tone: Modest result

Bitten on the hand during a visit to a friend's home

A man needed stitches, antibiotics and two weeks off work after a friend's dog bit his hand. The friend's renters insurance paid his medical bills, lost pay and a fair amount for pain.

Not every case is large. A fair result can simply make you whole.

Example result Settled after a Labor Law ruling

$1,850,000

Illustrative amount, not a real case

Construction fall Construction & Workplace Injuries Tone: Favorable

Scaffold plank gave way on a Midtown high-rise

A 34-year-old ironworker fell fourteen feet when an uninspected plank snapped. Labor Law §240 applied against the owner and general contractor, alongside his workers' comp claim.

The workers' comp lien was negotiated down, so more of the recovery reached him.

Example result Settled after depositions

$1,050,000

Illustrative amount, not a real case

Forklift injury Construction & Workplace Injuries Tone: Favorable

Warehouse forklift with a disabled backup alarm

A stock picker's foot was crushed by a forklift whose backup alarm had been unplugged for weeks. The claim was against the warehouse where the staffing agency placed him, on top of his comp benefits.

Example result Structured settlement

$2,100,000

Illustrative amount, not a real case

Surgical error Medical Malpractice Tone: Favorable

Surgical sponge left behind after an abdominal operation

A retained sponge caused months of infection and two more surgeries for a 58-year-old bookkeeper. The sponge count sheet said 'correct.' The imaging said otherwise.

Payments are spread out to cover lifetime follow-up care.

Example result Settled before trial

$1,600,000

Illustrative amount, not a real case

Delayed diagnosis Medical Malpractice Tone: Favorable

Chest scan flagged, never followed up

A radiologist flagged a suspicious spot on a lung scan. The report was filed without follow-up for nineteen months. Our nurse-attorney team traced every unread alert in the chart.

Honest numbers

Gross vs. net: what "settled for $X" really means

Results pages show gross amounts. Out of that figure come the contingency fee, the case costs the firm paid along the way, and any liens (health insurance, workers' comp, Medicaid or Medicare) that must be repaid. We put that math in writing before you sign anything, and we push the liens down as hard as we push the settlement up.

Why we show the losses

“They were honest that my store fall case probably wouldn't work once they saw the video. It didn't, and they never charged me a cent. I'd still send my family to them.”
