It’s not often we get to see the fruits of our labor so close to home: in October of 2015, Milwaukee news stations reported on a similar rollover accident with another Elgin street sweeper in Milwaukee. This time, though, there was a happy ending. Thanks to the roll bar and cab these machines now have, the driver was not flung from the sweeper and sustained only minor injuries.
In the most recent incident, a 20,000 lb. Milwaukee city street sweeper was perched precariously on its side with the driver trapped inside the cab. In news stories, you could see the man lying sideways in the cab. Fortunately, he had a phone with him and was able to call 911. Once rescue workers stabilized the truck, they were able to extract the driver.
To see the impact of one of our Society Changing Judgments contribute to saving a life in our own community years later underscores the importance of our approach to personal injury law. From the moment you choose Warshafsky for legal representation, we prepare your case as if it will go to trial. While our first concern is to ensure our clients are properly compensated for their injuries and losses, we also strive to effect change that will benefit all of society.
If you have been injured due to the carelessness or negligence of others, or due to a fault in the design or manufacture of a product, you may have grounds for a personal injury lawsuit. The best way to determine if you have a case or not is with a free, no-obligation consultation with one of our Milwaukee truck accident lawyers.
At this initial meeting, we’ll discuss your injury and how it occurred. If it looks like you have cause to pursue legal action, we will offer to represent you with no retainer fee and no monthly bill. Only after your case is resolved and you have received compensation for your injuries will we ask for payment. And if for any reason there is no award of damages in your case, either through settlement or a judgment, you won’t owe us a thing.
When people choose their Wisconsin personal injury lawyer based on the endorsement of a football player or actor, they risk choosing an attorney who has never won more money in a courtroom. Settlement mills forward your paperwork and take a cut of your damages. Hundreds of times we have prepared cases like yours beyond the brink of trial. Facing unlimited liability AND an expensive jury trial, insurance companies fess up what your case is worth. They HATE when you choose Warshafsky.
