Attorneys Noah Wexler and Ben Bireley represented the son, mother, and estate of a young father who was killed when an off-duty employee drove a company truck while drunk. There were numerous challenges in this case. It is rare for a company to be held liable for the actions of an off-duty employee but even rarer for them to be held liable when that off-duty employee breaks the law.

In the end, the company paid nearly every penny available of its insurance funds.

However, our questioning of the defendant’s own witnesses revealed the truth. This settlement ensures that our client will get the medical treatment and financial security he deserves. The case was pending in Harris County, Texas.

Despite these obstacles, Cory was able to reach a settlement after a week of trial for $3.7 million that will ensure our client, and his family, will receive the care that they need. The case was pending in the Eastern District of Louisiana.

Attorney's Kurt Arnold & Noah Wexler obtained a $3,500,000.00 settlement on behalf of two supply vessel captains who were violently assaulted while working off the coast of Nigeria.

The area in which they were required to operate was known to be at high risk for boarding, attacks and kidnappings yet their employer, and the company to which they were contracted, failed to take adequate measures to ensure their security and safety. As a result of the attacks one captain suffered facial fractures requiring surgery and the other suffered arm, back and neck injuries which will likely require surgery.

UPS had previously offered the family a $150,000 settlement before the case went to trial in Harris County, Texas.

In the incident, our client has been carrying a mooring line to tie up a barge alongside a dock when the slack in the line suddenly became taut, jerking him backward. The defendant argued that the line only became tight because another worker let it fall into the water; that our client was only injured because he had improperly tied the line around his shoulder; and that our client had pre-existing injuries.
