In a disputed liability case against dump truck corporation where client had surgical injuries, I found out how the dump truck company, seeking to cut costs, hired a bad driver with a bad record, leading to a wreck that changed our client's life.

In a disputed liability case against dump truck corporation where client had surgical injuries, I found out how the dump truck company, seeking to cut costs, hired a bad driver with a bad record, leading to a wreck that changed our client's life. The truck driver had multiple driving citations and his CDL was suspended after this wreck for unsafe driving. This is an example of how filing a lawsuit and digging into a driver's history can lead to better results for you, particularly in cases involving big company drivers.
In a trucking case I handled with co-counsel Fred Overby, we recovered 1.25 million dollars for client with multiple surgical injuries.

In a trucking case I handled with co-counsel Fred Overby, we recovered 1.25 million dollars for client with multiple surgical injuries. The insurance adjuster for the trucker had the audacity to claim our client staged the wreck and faked his injuries - allegations made on record! - which turned into explosive evidence when liability and damages were proven, leading to a positive result for our client. This result was obtained during my 9 years with Gary Bruce.
I worked on a tragic case where a wedding party flew in from New Jersey and visited an Atlanta nightclub. The driver of the party's car was recklessly overserved with alcohol and caused a wreck killing two people and catastrophically injuring our client, who was a passenger with the drunk driver.

I worked on a tragic case where a wedding party flew in from New Jersey and visited an Atlanta nightclub. The driver of the party's car was recklessly overserved with alcohol and caused a wreck killing two people and catastrophically injuring our client, who was a passenger with the drunk driver. The night club had video of the drunk patron but destroyed most of it. With co-counsel Shelly Crochet, obtained one million dollar policy limits. Restaurants and bars that serve alcohol have a duty to do so safely, and I know how to hold them accountable when they do not.
A Columbus teenager was tragically killed when parents left a loaded shotgun under the bed. One teen got the gun and accidentally shot the other, leading to gruesome wounds and death. With co-counsel Fred Overby, we obtained payment of $1,000,000 umbrella insurance policy. In this case, the insurance company had the grieving family si
A Columbus teenager was tragically killed when parents left a loaded shotgun under the bed. One teen got the gun and accidentally shot the other, leading to gruesome wounds and death. With co-counsel Fred Overby, we obtained payment of $1,000,000 umbrella insurance policy. In this case, the insurance company had the grieving family sign a release for an underlying $500,000 policy that seemed to limit their rights to the $1,000,000 policy. Upon investigation, the attempt to mislead the insureds failed, and policy limits were obtained in a horrible case involving the death of a young man. This result was obtained during my time with Gary Bruce.
I was part of a trial team that obtained an $890,000 jury verdict in federal court in Augusta, where the insurance company disputed coverage for law firm in malpractice action.

I was part of a trial team that obtained an $890,000 jury verdict in federal court in Augusta, where the insurance company disputed coverage for law firm in malpractice action. The case involved a verbal waiver of contract terms supporting the judgment, which was affirmed by the 11th Circuit. Finding insurance coverage and holding companies accountable is a critical part of every case. I know how to locate coverage, and then how to make it apply in your case.
A father and son in Columbus were savagely attacked by an unrestrained pit bull with a history of violence, leading to severe facial scarring. We globally resolved the case for $500,000. Too often unrestrained dangerous animals are left at large, endangering people of this community, where there are over 1,000 dog bite attacks a year.

Too often unrestrained dangerous animals are left at large, endangering people of this community, where there are over 1,000 dog bite attacks a year. There is often homeowners' coverage for such attacks, and I understand Georgia dog bite law and how to help you in these cases.

I represented a Columbus driver in a disputed liability trucking case where the truck driver failed to maintain his lane, causing serious injuries to client. The wreck was captured on video and a lawsuit revealed that an inexperienced driver had been hired by a national trucking company who wanted to pay less to him while endangering other drivers on the road. We recovered $525,000 for this client, who was able to get back onto his feet and go to work.
i handled a tragic case involving the suicide of a working husband and father while on the job. We represented his family against a psychiatrist who overprescribed powerful pain medication despite the husband's known history of depression. The case was fought from the outset by the psychiatrist and her insurer, before resolution on the eve of trial.
Our client, who had overcome incredible personal adversity in his life, was on his way to work early one morning when a log truck with failed brakes ran a red light, destroying the client's car and shattering his foot, making it impossible for him to work.

Our client, who had overcome incredible personal adversity in his life, was on his way to work early one morning when a log truck with failed brakes ran a red light, destroying the client's car and shattering his foot, making it impossible for him to work. Through litigation and discovery, we learned that the log truck company had an inspector that was in jail and in fact the company placed a fake inspection sticker on their vehicle to avoid detection. WE obtained a significant confidential result for client. This kind of digging into the facts is what you can expect from Mitch Ladson Law.
An Army Ranger struck by a landscaping company truck and trailer was offered $5,000 dollars after attempting to settle on his own for two years.

An Army Ranger struck by a landscaping company truck and trailer was offered $5,000 dollars after attempting to settle on his own for two years. The client was ready to give up after the insurer had dragged him to the eve of the statute of limitations. We were able to file suit, make sure he got the medical care he really needed (spinal surgery), and establish that the landscape combination vehicle that hit him was in fact a commercial vehicle subject to federal regulation. I obtained confidential 6 figure settlement for the client after exposing the negligence of the corporate employer and reckless hiring of a young, unqualified driver.
Our client went to a Columbus barber shop and fell while descending a slick ramp of which the owner and landlord had knowledge. Liability was denied pre-suit and during litigation. In litigation, witness testimony was obtained showing that other customers and the owners knew the ramp was slick but did nothing to fix the ramp or warn cus
Our client went to a Columbus barber shop and fell while descending a slick ramp of which the owner and landlord had knowledge. Liability was denied pre-suit and during litigation. In litigation, witness testimony was obtained showing that other customers and the owners knew the ramp was slick but did nothing to fix the ramp or warn customers. In fact, the ramp was destroyed after the company was put on notice of client's claim. Confidential 6 figure settlement obtained for client who had to undergo painful rotator cuff surgery.
I served as co-counsel and obtained a jury verdict of $110,000 in a defamation suit between two hotel owners. The case was hotly disputed and involved baseless allegations of child molestation.

I served as co-counsel and obtained a jury verdict of $110,000 in a defamation suit between two hotel owners. The case was hotly disputed and involved baseless allegations of child molestation. Defamation, where false public statements harm you or your business' valuable reputation, is a commonly misunderstood part of Georgia law. I know how to gather facts, evaluate your claim, and make sure people who make false attacks are held accountable.
