T.H. and S.E. got a phone call with news that no child should have to receive – their mother, who lived in the U.S. Virgin Islands, had been in a tragic accident and was killed.
The driver was working at the time of the crash for the federal government, which was blaming their mother for the crash.
The children, who lived in the United States, wanted two things – answers and justice.
They called a lifelong friend, an insurance defense attorney who previously litigated against Firm Partner Joe Landy, who strongly recommended that they contact him.
Joe filed a Federal Tort Claims Act case in the Virgin Islands, litigated the case extensively and took numerous depositions, and was able to prove that the defendant was the sole cause of the crash.
Shortly before trial, Joe obtained a confidential, life altering settlement for the family.
“Mr. Landy left no stone unturned and made sure I always felt informed and supported throughout the process,” S.E. said. “He was thorough, professional and truly committed to my case. His dedication exceeded my expectations, and I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney.”
