Lifetime Medical Care - Motor Vehicle Accident

Clear liability motor vehicle accident where client sustained significant injuries that required lifetime medical care and permanently prevented him from returning to work as a carpenter. The defense did not dispute liability, but challenged the legitimacy of the client's medical and economic losses by arguing he had only suffered "soft-tissue injuries." After months of depositions and contentious briefing, the claim settled for more than double the defense's final offer. We further maximized our client's recovery by working directly with Montana Medicaid to reduce the lien for the client's healthcare to approximately 10% of the full retail value.
