March 10, 2024, is a day the Thorne family will never forget. When Firm Partner Joe Landy was brought in to handle their case, he knew immediately that the truth had to be uncovered.
That night, the Thornes received a call that their niece’s vehicle had broken down on Florida’s Turnpike. Wanting to help, the family went to the scene and began towing the car home. Chris and his wife, Kashiri, got into the disabled vehicle while Chris’s mother towed it.
As they carefully made their way down the turnpike at about 20 mph, their vehicles were suddenly rear-ended by a tractor-trailer. All three adults sustained injuries, and two of them were forced to undergo surgery.
Despite being the victims, the family was cited by the investigating officer for impeding traffic. Their first law firm could not obtain an offer from the insurance carrier, and the case was referred to Joe Landy, who meticulously reconstructed the crash, gathered crucial evidence, and proved that the truck driver — not the Thorne family — was at fault.
Joe’s work forced the insurance company to pay its $1,000,000 policy limits. This result not only secured justice for the Thornes but also cleared their name.
