MACHINERY COMPANY CLIENT PAYS PENNIES ON THE DOLLAR!


Tharpe & Howell obtained a great result for a large machinery company client at a recent settlement conference!

In this case, the client's employee was driving a large maintenance truck which rear-ended a small automobile. As a result of the accident, plaintiff claimed more than $750,000 in personal injuries (including multiple spine surgeries), and compensation for past and future wages.

Firm Partner Byron Ames, and Associate Jon Blum, with the help of a crack team of experts, were able to resolve the matter for less than $.25 on the dollar, including an almost 40% contribution from an alleged joint tortfeasor who arguably had zero liability or exposure!
