Settlements
Attorneys Richard Smith and Scott Beckey have over 50 years of combined legal experience and continue to serve their clients with professionalism, compassion, and respect. Attorney Richard Smith explains our Settlements Policy in further detail in the video above.
When it comes to large settlement numbers, they often don’t reflect the full injury or damage that has been caused to human beings to be awarded such amounts. With that in mind, we are always hesitant to share these numbers but do so to show we have handled serious cases that have helped our clients receive the treatment and help they need.
$2,600,000
Client suffered serious injuries and multiple surgeries. Industrial accident in South Carolina. Case was denied and litigated until a settlement was reached a few days prior to the start of trial.
$1,075,000

$1,000,000
The client suffered multiple injuries due to a motorcycle crash. The case was originally denied based on liability grounds. We filed suit, retained experts and were able to settle the case for the full policy limits of $1,000,000.
$800,000
North Carolina accident case involving a tree falling on the client while she was traveling down the road. Client suffered significant injuries but had improved prior to trial.
