When Tylor was rear-ended by a landscaping truck while driving to work, he had no idea how difficult the road ahead would become.
Following the crash, Tylor experienced significant pain and sought medical treatment. After being evaluated by multiple surgeons, he was ultimately told that surgery was necessary. Despite the seriousness of his injuries and the impact the crash had on his life, the insurance company refused to fairly compensate him.
That is when Firm Partner Joe Landy filed suit and began aggressively fighting for Tylor.
Throughout the litigation, the defense attempted to minimize the claim at every turn. An accident reconstruction expert claimed Tylor caused the crash, even though he was rear-ended. The insurance company hired a biomechanical engineer who argued the crash forces were not significant enough to cause injury, despite visible property damage. The defense also hired the medical experts who tried to argue that Tylor’s injuries predated the crash, even though he was living his life pain free before the collision.
Joe refused to let the insurance company and its hired experts rewrite the facts. He continued to push the case forward, challenging the defense arguments and advocating for the full value of Tylor’s damages.
Ultimately, Joe’s persistence and preparation in the litigation process led to a $660,000 settlement for Tylor.
This result is a powerful reminder that serious injury cases are not just about what happened in the crash, but about the fight that follows. We are proud of Joe’s work and grateful that Tylor trusted Lesser, Landy, Smith & Siegel – Florida Injury Lawyers with his case.
