DeKeyzer Law’s Top 10 Personal Injury Case Results

DeKeyzer Law’s Top Personal Injury Case Results 

1. Confidential multimillion dollar settlement for parents of a 19-year-old killed while at work in a railroad crossing accident in the Houston Ship Channel area. This case was significant because of the large recovery and there were no economic damages. The recovery was based on the parents’ mental anguish only.
2. Recovered $750,000 for a family when their 89-year-old father died when he fell out of his wheelchair while being transported in a van to a medical appointment. This case was important because DeKeyzer Law maneuvered the case out of the restrictive medical malpractice laws and the company disputed liability.
3. Recovered $500,000 for a truck driver that dropped metal beams on his legs as he was unloading his cargo. In this case the company blamed the truck driver as he was the sole person responsible for unloading the metal beams from his truck. Another attorney requested DeKeyzer Law take over the case and we negotiated a settlement within two months of taking the case.
4. Represented eight landowners against a large oil and gas company for toxic tort claims and recovered confidential amount at mediation. This matter occurred in Liberty Texas and Holland DeKeyzer was requested to become lead counsel after the case was expected to be dismissed because of a lack of evidence. Once Holland DeKeyzer began investigating the case, he discovered bombshell evidence proving the company knew its operations were harmful and the company attempted to hide that evidence.
5. Recovered $460,000 for a mother and daughter with back and knee injuries when their chartered bus was involved in a collision. This case was challenging because the clients did not have their seatbelts fastened and had documented prior injuries.
6. Recovered $395,000 for a man with neck injuries with a documented prior neck injury. This client was initially represented by a TV lawyer that mismanaged the client’s medical treatment and the company denied liability. The TV lawyer then asked DeKeyzer Law to handle the case. We immediately filed a lawsuit, began investigating liability facts, and secured critical depositions. The case later resolved at mediation. 
7. Recovered $350,000 for a man involved in low-speed minor collision that required the client to have neck surgery. This client was initially represented by another lawyer that was not experienced in complex personal injury cases and the insurance company denied the claim. DeKeyzer Law was hired, filed a lawsuit, and discovered that the company that hired the driver had not conducted a background check on the driver with a bad driving record. This case was settled weeks before a jury trial was to begin.
8. Recovered $275,000 for a man in a bar fight after the security guard hit the man in the face with a flashlight breaking the man’s jaw. This case was challenging because the client admitted to pushing the security guard and the defendants had evidence of the client’s prior fights at bars. After dozens of depositions and court battles, this case was mediated successfully.
9. Recovered $227,500 for a woman after she was hit by a vehicle while she was riding her bicycle and injured her knee. The defense initially denied any wrongdoing but Meagan DeKeyzer was able to establish liability during depositions. In this case the client had knee surgery, but she recovered quickly. The 74-year-old client however, suffered extreme PTSD symptoms which justified a large settlement amount. This case was settled two days before a jury trial was set to begin.
10. Recovered double the policy limits for a man with a shoulder injury against the insurance company in a Stower’s case. DeKeyzer law has achieved three additional Stower’s recoveries. Stower’s cases are incredibly difficult because of the legal nuances and the aggressive negotiation tactics required. For context, most Texas personal injury lawyers go their entire career and never achieve a Stower’s recovery.
