Our client, an elderly woman, was lawfully crossing the street in a crosswalk when she was struck by an 18-wheeler. The collision knocked her to the ground, causing severe injuries to her left leg, knee, and back. She required emergency surgery on her knee and was unable to walk for six months during recovery. Despite her vulnerability and the life-altering impact of the crash, the trucking company denied all accountability. We fought aggressively on her behalf and secured a $1.5 million settlement to ensure she had the care and support she needed.

Our client recovered $1.2 million dollars in settlement after being rear-ended by a commercial moving vehicle. Although the company originally claimed the truck driver was not their employee, Morrison & Hughes proved that the movers were at fault.

Our client suffered a devastating neck injury while renting a go-kart. After experiencing brake failure during her first race and alerting staff, she was unknowingly placed back into the same go-kart for a second race. Again, the brakes locked, causing her to crash into a wall and suffer a broken neck. She required cervical fusion surgery after more than two weeks in the ICU and has since experienced permanent loss of movement in her neck. Unable to continue working, she was forced to close her business and retire early. Despite initial setbacks and a previous attorney withdrawing from the case, we stepped in and secured a $600,000 settlement to compensate for her pain, lost income, and life-changing injuries.

Although the at-fault party claimed to have not caused the accident, our accident reconstruction team was able to prove that our client was the innocent party.

A father and son were driving to a job site when they were violently T-boned by a rideshare driver who ran a red light. Both father and son suffered significant injuries in the crash, which had a devastating impact on their health, family business, and future. The son, a promising minor league baseball player, suffered brain injury, wrist damage, and long-term nerve damage that impacted his ability to throw a ball. His father sustained dental injuries requiring full reconstruction, as well as serious neck and back trauma. Despite initial resistance, we fought for their case and recovered $275,000 to help with their medical care and financial losses.

While assisting with school bus duty, our client was hit from behind by a student driver in the school parking lot. The impact spun her 180 degrees and caused severe injuries to the entire right side of her body, with secondary injuries developing on the left side. Despite video footage clearly showing the incident, she was initially offered only $200 a week in workers’ compensation and forced to endure months of delays in care and therapy. Unable to return to her job due to restrictions, both the school system and at-fault driver refused to take accountability. With mounting medical bills, she was forced to sell her home and move into a rental three times more expensive. Through aggressive advocacy and persistence, we secured a $500,000 combined settlement to help her regain financial stability and access the long-term care she needs.

While assisting her team during a cleanup effort, our client, a dedicated service manager at a car dealership, suffered a serious lower back injury while moving a heavy toolbox. She immediately experienced sharp pain shooting down her right leg and was later diagnosed with a crushed nerve. Despite undergoing surgery and multiple treatments, including injections, her pain persisted and limited her ability to work. Restricted to working from home, she soon faced retaliation from her employer. The dealership attempted to alter her pay, isolate her from daily operations, and push her out of her role. We fought to ensure she received fair compensation, ultimately securing a $215,000 settlement to support her medical recovery and protect her from further financial harm.

Our client was walking her dog at a pet-friendly hotel when she stepped into a hidden hole covered by pine straw, causing her to fall and suffer a severe ankle fracture.

We secured a $475,000 settlement to compensate for her medical costs, loss of mobility, and diminished quality of life.

Results that matter.

One moment changed everything for a career truck driver who spent his life on the road doing the work he loved. While completing a routine task of securing cargo, a workplace accident resulted in severe back and neck injuries, multiple disc herniations, and years of chronic pain that ended his career for good. After extensive treatment, three spinal fusion surgeries, and no ability to return to work, he turned to Attorney Paul Jenkins. Paul secured years of full medical coverage, weekly income benefits, Social Security Disability and refused multiple lowball settlement offers. When the insurance company finally realized we would not back down, the insurer finally stepped up.
