$46M Settlement Illustrating Leg Injuries After Driver Hits Motorcyclist During Alleged Seizure

$Traumatic Brain Injury - Brain Surgery Animation http://www.highimpact.com - This brain surgery animation was used to demonstrate a young girls craniotomy, cranioplasty, and reconstructive skull surgery after her vehicle was struck by a tractor-trailer. The procedures included the evacuation of a large epidural hematoma, the draining of the epidural space, and the reassembly of bone fragments to repair the skull.

The impact sent the car spinning into oncoming traffic where it struck another vehicle. When paramedics arrived, the 17-year-old was unresponsive with bleeding from her left ear and a laceration from behind her left ear. She was rushed to the hospital where she underwent a series of CT scans that showed a severely comminuted open skull fracture with an underlying 1.1 cm subdural hematoma. She was taken to the operating room where an emergency craniotomy was performed to evacuate the hematoma and reassemble the skull fragments. The patient gradually began to wake up and was discharged six days later, after she showed she could maneuver up and down the hallway. The biggest challenge in a traumatic brain injury case like this - where most of the damages are deeply underlying and undetectable on the surface - is that the only visual evidence is in the form of 2D black-and-white radiographic films. This can look ambiguous to the typical juror because it’s often difficult to discern where these snapshots are located inside the person’s skull. Tony Seaton, Esq., and Robert Bates, Esq., needed to reinforce this 2D radiographic evidence with maximum 3D context. We equipped them with a custom Diagnostic Slice Chooser: an interactive presentation that presents radiographic slides within a three-dimensional model of the patient’s head. We also designed the model accurately to the patient’s likeness and colorized the films to highlight key areas of damage. The attorneys could show the complete depth and magnitude of his client’s injuries at every level both before and after the surgery. After establishing the full extent of damages, we also created an animation to walk viewers through the surgical experience the patient would undergo as a result of her injuries. The visual presentation helped jurors understand the destructive impact this collision had on this young teenager’s life, and Mr. Seaton and Mr. Bates, Esq., were able to acquire a $4.5M settlement for his client.

$Skull and Shoulder Fractured After Woman Ejected from Golf Cart - Animation David Yarborough, Esq., obtained a $2M settlement for a 68-year-old woman who sustained severe skull and shoulder fractures after she was ejected from a golf cart. Read the full case study here: https://highimpact.com/case-studies/2m-settlement-animating-skull-fractures-after-woman-ejected-from-golf-cart I sent a pre-suit, policy limits, time-sensitive demand and they tendered the $2M policy limits. There was no dispute in liability. I am convinced that it was the settlement video that incorporated the High Impact Damages Summary that caused the case to settle. –David Yarborough, Esq., Yarborough Applegate, LLC, Charleston, SC$
