At Riddle & Riddle Injury Lawyers, we fight for maximum compensation. When Justice Counts™, our record speaks for itself.
$350,000
Our client, a 17-year-old female, was seriously injured when the defendant driver crossed the center line and hit our client’s vehicle head-on. Our client sustained an open heal fracture with a crush injury and nerve damage. We recovered a policy limits offer of $100,000 from the at-fault driver’s insurance. Our investigation also revealed that the at-fault driver had an umbrella policy that covered him at the time of the accident. We presented a claim to the umbrella policy and were able to secure an additional $250,000 for our client, bringing the total recovery to $350,000.
$350,000
Our client was a traveling nurse who suffered severe orthopedic injuries in a rollover car accident, including spinal burst fractures, bilateral ankle fractures, knee fractures, cervical stenosis, and radiculopathy. She underwent emergency surgery with open reduction and external fixation of bilateral ankle fractures, knee surgery, cervical, thoracic and lumbar fusion surgeries. She turned to Riddle & Riddle workers’ compensation lawyers in North Carolina, led by attorney Chris Brantley.
Our client was paid temporary total disability benefits during the healing period. All medical bills were paid. She successfully returned to work with a different employer at higher wages.
Attorney Brantley demanded an Independent Medical Evaluation and was able to secure substantial disability ratings for the client’s multiple injuries. However, the defendants refused to acknowledge the ratings, at which point we filed for a hearing to compel payment of ratings.
The claim settled prior to the hearing for $350,000 and waiver of a substantial overpayment made by the carrier.
$325,000
We successfully represented a woman who was involved in two collisions within 90 days. Prior to the first collision, she had fallen and injured her shoulder. We argued that both collisions significantly aggravated and exacerbated her pre-existing shoulder injury and were able to resolve both of her auto accident claims for a combined $325,000.
$300,000
Our client was cut off by the defendant who failed to stop at a stop sign, causing a collision. Client had surgery and required significant physical therapy and other treatment. Suit was filed, and the case resolved at mediation for a total settlement of $300,000.
$300,000
Our client was injured when she was rear-ended while driving on the job. As a result of the collision, our client’s back was injured which required several injections and ultimately a lumbar fusion and decompression surgery. The auto accident claim was resolved prior to suit being filed for $200,000. This was the full amount of liability coverage available. Her workers’ compensation case settled at mediation for $100,000 along with a reduction in the lien on the $200,000 recovery from the third-party automobile accident claim.
North Carolina workers’ comp lawyer Chris Brantley handled the claim. We were proud to secure significant compensation for our client in this complicated matter.
$298,000
The defendant failed to yield and unexpectedly crossed into the path of our client’s car. The collision caused our client significant injuries, including a liver laceration, rib fractures, and a duodenal injury requiring surgery. Our client incurred more than $135,000 in medical bills. Attorney Darren Dawson at Riddle & Riddle found three separate insurance carriers and negotiated the maximum coverage amount available on each policy. Our client received $298,000 in damages for her injuries prior to suit being filed.
