Case results

Recent verdicts & settlements.

Selected case results that reflect the type and complexity of matters our firm handles. Every case is unique.

Auto accident
$4.2M

Settlement for a Miami family whose son was struck by a distracted commercial truck driver on I-95. Insurance offered $250k; we secured $4.2M after 14 months of negotiation and trial preparation.

Medical malpractice
$2.8M

Verdict against a Miami hospital for a misdiagnosed cardiac event resulting in lasting injury. Successfully proved the hospital deviated from the standard of care.

Slip & fall
$1.6M

Settlement for a 67-year-old client who suffered a broken hip at a national grocery chain. We documented prior reports of the same hazard and forced an early settlement.

Workers' comp
$890k

Lifetime medical benefits plus lump sum for a construction worker permanently disabled in a scaffold collapse. Employer's insurance had initially denied the claim.

Wrongful death
$3.5M

Settlement for the family of a young father killed by a drunk driver. Includes dram shop liability against the bar that overserved.

Product liability
$1.2M

Settlement involving a defective home appliance that caused serious burn injuries. Recall was issued shortly after case filing.

Past results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Each case is evaluated on its individual facts and circumstances. Settlement amounts reflect gross recovery before fees and costs.

How it works

From your first call to settled case.

You focus on healing. We handle everything else.

I

Free consult

Call or fill out the form. We meet (in person, phone, or Zoom) to discuss your case in confidence. No obligation.

II

Investigation

We gather evidence, witness statements, medical records, and accident reports. We bring in experts where needed.

III

Negotiation

We file claims and negotiate with the insurance company. Most cases settle here — for far more than self-represented clients receive.

IV

Trial if needed

If the offer is unjust, we file suit and prepare for trial. Insurance knows our track record — that often produces a better settlement.

Client voices

What our clients say.

"After my accident the insurance company was lowballing me with $30,000. Carlos took the case and we settled for $475,000. He returned every call within hours. I felt like I had a real advocate for the first time."

RC
Rosa Castillo
Auto accident · 2024

"Elena handled my medical malpractice case with extraordinary care. She explained every step, fought tirelessly against the hospital's legal team, and got my family justice. I cannot recommend her highly enough."

JM
James M.
Medical malpractice · 2024

"Michael went to trial when the defense thought we'd cave. We won a verdict three times larger than their final offer. The whole firm treated my wife and me with dignity through a very dark time."
