These are some of our most recent case results. Each provides a brief example of some of the cases our team handles on a daily basis. We handle personal injury cases in Madison and throughout all of Wisconsin. Here are some of the wins we’re most proud of:
Car Accident Settlement $3.7 Million
In 2021, our Gruber Law Offices team obtained a $3.7 million settlement on behalf of a seriously injured husband and wife. Specifically, this matter involved a car crash that occurred in Waukesha County, Wisconsin. Our clients suffered serious injuries, primarily involving a traumatic brain injury.
The case also involved several legal causes of action and significant motion practice, briefing, and depositions. The legal side of the case also involved contested liability, insurance limitations, insurance coverage analysis, as well as other unique and challenging issues. Our legal team pursued an innovative, unique strategy to address some of the insurance coverage issues and other legal intricacies.
Truck Accident Settlement $10.24 Million
In 2021, we resolved a crash for $10.24 million. In this case, we represented two family members and the Estate of an individual who tragically passed away. The case involved orthopedic injuries as well as a traumatic brain injury. The injuries and impact on the family were horrific.
We filed a formal lawsuit in Jefferson County, Wisconsin, about halfway between Milwaukee and Madison. The case was aggressively defended based on liability and damages. The case involved a great deal of expert testimonials, depositions, and insurance coverage analysis. We filed several different causes of action including a traditional negligence claim, a negligent hiring, training, and supervision claim, along with claims against the broker. We aggressively handled the case and resolved it for $10.24 million.
Car Accident Verdict $4.8 Million
Gruber Law Offices won a $4,865,750 million jury verdict in Milwaukee County.
This verdict came after a several-day jury trial in front of Judge Mary Triggiano. The $4.86 million verdict drastically beat the defendant’s settlement offers before trial. In fact, the defendant’s insurance company made a settlement offer of approximately $150,000 at mediation.
Around a week before trial, the insurance company upped their offer to $225,000, which we turned down. The jury verdict came back at $4.8 million with some negligence reductions. The case was subsequently settled. We are proud to stand up for our clients.
Motorcycle Accident Settlement $3.25 Million
In 2019, we secured a record-setting $3,250,000 settlement. Based on our research, Gruber Law Offices believes this $3.25 million settlement is the largest reported wrongful death settlement or verdict ever for a crash that occurred in Juneau County, Wisconsin. The case involved a truck vs. motorcycle crash that occurred in Juneau County, Wisconsin.
A semi-truck rear-ended another truck with one of the trucks, then collided with a motorcyclist. Gruber Law Offices represented the family of the deceased motorcyclist in a wrongful death case on behalf of a 60-year-old man who died due to injuries sustained in this tragic crash. The case involved a detailed analysis and presentation of Wisconsin wrongful death law and statutory caps, as well as significant involvement from expert forensic pathologists regarding potential conscious pain and suffering, among other legal and medical issues.
Although, of course, no amount of money will bring him back, we are extremely satisfied that this result represents accountability, responsibility, and justice. We were honored to have helped and represented a wonderful and loving family.
