$400,000 in workers’ compensation benefits and $1,000,000 in total personal injury compensation for a 58-year-old salesman who suffered leg fractures and other injuries in an automobile crash while on a sales trip in Kentucky. We pursued a personal injury claim against the other driver and settled it for $25,000, the limit of his automobile insurance coverage. We then pursued a claim under the underinsured motorist policy of the employer’s automobile insurance coverage and settled that claim for $975,000, the coverage limit. We also filed a workers’ compensation claim against the employer which was denied on the basis that our client was not covered by the employer’s workers’ compensation insurance policy. We challenged the denial in Circuit Court and obtained a ruling that it was improper. We were then able to settle the workers’ compensation claim for an additional $400,000.

$475,000 plus a trust fund to cover future medical costs for a 47-year-old carpenter who suffered amputations to two fingers as a result of a circular saw injury.
