introduction
QUESTIONNAIRE
Through diligent investigation of three car accident I obtained from towing and collision shop photos of scene which furnished proof of how accident happened. By moving for summary judgment before depositions I obtained pre-deposition affidavits that contradicted subsequent deposition testimony. By obtaining full narratives and life care plan and economic narrative of economic losses including future ones case was resolved for close to three million dollars .
