Bernath v. Jones

This was an auto v. auto collision in which my client suffered a fractured knee cap. He made his living as a painter, and without the functionality of his knee, he was inhibited in his ability to climb up and down ladders. He was also unable to walk though job sites to render cost estimates, and he had other limitations as well. And not only did his injury interfere with his work, but it interfered with his beloved hoby of hiking. Following a dilligent case work-up including a lost earnings analysis by a vocational expert, we managed to negotiate a settlement with the third-party and umbrella carriers for $315,000.00.
