Hinkle & Foran limits its practice to catastrophic personal injury and wrongful death cases. By handling only a limited number of major cases, we can devote our time and attention to those who need it most. Our clients receive individual attention as our personal injury lawyers seek to maximize their recovery.
E.M. v. Blount, Inc.
Our client was working on a logging operation. He was cutting off the ends of logs intended to be used as telephone poles. It was raining. A co-worker, operating a crane-type loader was cleaning up the work area and dropped a load of stumps and debris on E.M., causing a severe neck injury. Because of immunity created under the worker’s compensation laws, we were not able to sue the co-worker. We did sue the manufacturer of the log loader because the side windows of the loader fogged up in the rain and there was no effective defroster provided. After a very lengthy and hotly disputed mediation, the case settled, allowing our client to secure an accessible residence and escape life in an institution.
