The Incident: A Catastrophic Fall

Our client, a maintenance worker, experienced a life-changing event when he fell 20 feet off a roof. The fall resulted in catastrophic injuries to his back, neck, and legs. Initially, he sought help from a less reputable law firm, which left him without any support after his hospital discharge. Realizing he needed better representation, he turned to PLBH.

Comprehensive Medical and Legal Support

Upon taking on the case, Attorney Jennie Kim and the dedicated team at PLBH faced significant resistance from the insurance company. However, we were determined to ensure our client received the exceptional care and support he needed. We facilitated:

  • 24-Hour In-Home Health Assistance: Ensuring the client had round-the-clock care to manage his severe injuries.
  • Home Modifications: Making necessary adjustments to his home to accommodate his physical limitations.

Leveraging Expert Networks

To build a robust case, we utilized our extensive network of professionals, including medical experts, home healthcare specialists, and vocational consultants. This collaboration helped us thoroughly establish the severity of our client’s injuries and his need for comprehensive care.

Achieving a 100% Disability Rating

Despite our client’s immigration status, we successfully negotiated a 100% disability rating with the insurance company. This was accomplished even without a physician’s declaration of total disability. Our persistence and strategic approach ensured that the insurance company recognized the full extent of our client’s disabilities.

Securing a $4.2 Million Settlement

Within two years, our efforts culminated in a $4.2 million settlement. This settlement spared our client years of potentially lengthy litigation and secured the financial and medical support he desperately needed. The settlement not only provided immediate relief but also ensured long-term care and financial stability.
