Representative Cases

While every case is determined on its own specific facts, the following cases represent past cases where I have had successful results for my clients. A careful evaluation by an attorney of the facts and legal issues in your case is required in order to properly advise you of your legal rights and remedies.

$9.6 million for 6 loggers seriously injured in a helicopter crash. The defendants had initially denied responsibility by claiming to be the loggers' employer protected by the Alaska Workers' Compensation Act.

$8 million for the families of 4 men who died in a commuter airline crash. The defendants had argued that the families suffered no significant economic loss because the men practiced a subsistence lifestyle as opposed to being formally employed.

$2.3 million for the burn victim of an aircraft accident.

$1.5 million for a commercial fishermen whose knee was crushed between the rollers of a conveyor belt on board a commercial fish processing vessel. The defendants had argued that the worker was solely responsible for his own injury when he was following the orders of his superior.
