GGB represented a client in Crawford vs. Om (Orange County Superior Court Case No. 30-2013-00632416), involving claims of assault and battery resulting from an altercation during a basketball game at a gymnasium. The plaintiff alleged that our client assaulted him during the game, leading to severe, debilitating injuries. Initially, the plaintiff demanded $250,000 to settle the case.
Our legal team, led by Milton V. Fajardo, meticulously prepared a robust defense strategy. We conducted thorough investigations, gathered essential evidence, and developed a clear and persuasive argument. Throughout the mediation process, we demonstrated the weaknesses in the plaintiff’s claims and the lack of substantial evidence to support the allegations of severe injuries caused by the assault.
Our strategic approach and effective negotiation skills resulted in the plaintiff agreeing to settle the matter for a significantly reduced amount of $17,500 during mediation.
