Attorney Ben Bireley

Attorneys Kurt Arnold, Jason Itkin, Cory Itkin, and Ben Bireley settled a case for a record sum on behalf of a grieving family. Our clients lost their loved one in an offshore incident due to negligence, but the defendant offered them a shockingly low sum as compensation. They then pressured the family into accepting the settlement offer through the use of arcane legal maneuvers and 100-year-old, outdated laws. By persevering through their shallow tactics, our team was able to secure $6.9 million for the family’s future security and stability—many times more than the defendant’s original offer. Arnold & Itkin is proud of this result, and even prouder that our client received the compensation their situation demanded.

Our firm was proud to secure a multimillion-dollar settlement for the family of a deceased offshore worker. Attorneys Kurt Arnold, Jason Itkin, Cory Itkin, and Ben Bireley represented the widow of an vessel worker who died due to alleged negligence.

Shortly after receiving the call, Kurt Arnold flew out to speak with the family personally. After meeting, we immediately filed the case to put the pressure back on the defendant. Despite multiple legal obstacles, our team eventually negotiated a $6.6 million settlement—a sizable award that will help our client gain closure, grieve in peace, and secure a financially stable future.

When she contacted our firm, Kurt Arnold immediately flew out to speak with her personally.

Our client suffered serious injuries to his back and neck as a result, which kept him from earning a living. The defendant (the company who employed the truck driver) attempted to avoid responsibility by blaming the other drivers in the accident and by downplaying our client's injuries—injuries that required multiple operations. We continued working right up to the trial date to hold the company accountable. At the last minute, they chose to settle with our client rather than face a jury.
