Case Results

Mr. Tehrani and the Tehrani Law Group for obtained a $100,000 policy limit settlement for a 10 year old girl who was attacked by a german shepherd in a playground while she was playing with her cousin. The dog bit the minor on her face, arms and legs during the attack, requiring her to get stitches on several parts of her body.  One of the bites was so severe and traumatic that it exposed the minor’s subcutaneous tissue.  Mr. Tehrani hired a local renowned plastic surgeon to perform a scar evaluation surgery on the minor and to opine as to the reasonable likelihood of future scar revision surgery.  With that report, Mr. Tehrani was able to secure the policy limits settlement despite the minor only incurring $12,000 in medical bills.

Chalk another one up for the good guys!

This client was involved in a minor fender bender with another vehicle, and he had pulled over to call emergency dispatch. A police officer arrived and his cruiser struck Mr. Tehrani’s client as he was waiting behind his own disabled vehicle. Mr. Tehrani’s client sustained damage to his back and knees as a result of the accident. While Mr. Tehrani’s client did not sustain any permanent injuries, he did have to seek medical treatment and undergo physical therapy for almost a full year, thus increasing the pain and suffering element of the award.

Client initially fractured her wrist as a result of the accident, and then she developed bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome in both hands and thoracic outlet syndrome in her left shoulder. Defense attorneys fought us on liability arguing that our client was outside the crosswalk, and that she never even got hit by a car. They also argued all of our client’s injuries were pre-existing and that she was not as injured as she claimed to be. Client’s total medical bills were only $22,000. Last offer prior to trial was $100,000, and we decided it to reject it and take our chances at trial. Despite all the difficulties we faced with this case, after 3 days of trial, we managed to secure a $285,000 verdict for our client.
