Case Results

Our client was driving her vehicle westbound on US Route 6 in Ridgeville Township. Another vehicle was driving on County Road 24 northbound. The vehicle stopped at the stop sign at the intersection of US Route 6 and County Road 24. While our client was approaching this intersection, the vehicle pulled out and collided with our client. Both vehicles traveled off the intersection. The other driver was cited under RC 4511.43A for failing to yield the right of way to our client.

Due to the injuries of our client, she required Life Flight to bring her to St. Vincent Hospital in Toledo, Ohio. Her left femur was broken and required emergency surgery upon her arrival. She also had a fracture in one of her ribs. She was transferred to New York, where she resides, and remained in the hospital for six days.

Charles Boyk and his team helped the client with the medical bills, negotiating with insurance, and working on a settlement. During initial negotiations, we received an offer of $70,000. Charles Boyk filed a lawsuit on behalf of our client. After gathering more evidence, we were able to negotiate a full policy offer settlement. Our client accepted a $250,000 settlement to compensate for her medical bills, property damage and suffering.

This case was referred to us by another attorney. Once our office started on the case and prior to litigation, Attorney Mike Bruno and his pre-litigation team were able to secure the policy limits for the husband in addition to his wife’s $15,000 settlement.

Our client was driving eastbound on Sterns Road in Whiteford Township, Monroe County, Michigan. He was driving towards the ramp to enter US 23 South. Another car was traveling westbound on Sterns Road and attempted to turn left into the entrance ramp. However, the car failed to yield the right of way to our client and struck our client’s car. Our client’s car was totaled. The jaws of life had to be used to help him out of the car. He was taken by EMS to ProMedica Toledo Hospital where he remained in the ICU for three days. He suffered a broken sternum, two broken ribs, a partial collapsed lung, and two broken vertebra processes. He was forced to use a walker and wear a heart hugger on his chest.

Soon after the accident, our client was referred by another attorney to our firm. Andrea Young and her team began to work with him to track his medical bills, speak to the liable driver’s insurance company, and make sure he received the treatment he needed. Before going to litigation, Andrea Young was able to negotiate a full policy limits offer for our client. Our client accepted a $250,000 offer from the liable driver’s insurance company.

In July 2022 our client was outside of her home in Perrysburg, Ohio, when this incident occurred. Our client had been walking in the area between her home and her neighbor’s home. At the same time, her neighbor was attempting to put his dog out on a lead. The dog noticed our client walking and managed to slip free from his owner’s control. The dog ran after our client and latched onto her ankle and calf. Eventually the dog’s owner was able to regain control of the dog and stop it from further attacking our client. As a result of this attack, our client sustained several serve lacerations, tears, and puncture wounds to her calf and ankle. Additionally, the dog severed part of our client’s Achille’s tendon and the wound in that area was so deep that her Achille’s tendon was visible. One of the wounds then became infected and required our client to need a wound vac. Our client also was required to have multiple surgeries to repair the injury to her ankle. Following the attack our client required counseling as she began to have significant anxiety regarding dogs.

When our client contacted us, we knew it was our job to assist our client, who had suffered a great deal, the compensation she deserved for this awful incident. Charles Boyk and his pre-litigation team immediately got to work on the case. Once our client was done treating, we presented a demand for settlement to the dog owner’s insurance company and through negotiations were successful in obtaining a $235,000 settlement for our client.

Our client was lawfully operating her vehicle in Paulding, Ohio, when she began making a left-hand turn. At the same time, the defendant exited a McDonald’s parking lot and attempted to cross the roadway to reach a gas station. The defendant failed to yield, causing a collision with our client.

As a result, our client sustained severe injuries to her neck, back, shoulders, and head. She experienced concussive symptoms, significant memory loss, and difficulty sleeping due to ongoing pain. She does not recall the impact itself and required extensive therapy to regain mobility in her shoulder and knee.

Fortunately, our client carried uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage through her insurance. Attorney Andrea Young and her team were able to secure the full policy limits on her behalf.

Our client is recovering from life-threatening injuries after a violent collision at a Dollar General parking lot entrance. Our client had his turn signal activated and was turning into the store when a reckless driver, reportedly traveling at a high rate of speed, slammed into the side of his vehicle.

The impact was so severe that firefighters were forced to pry the driver’s door open to extricate him from the totaled car. He was rushed to the emergency room in critical condition, where he was treated for collapsed lungs and a complete fracture of all ribs on his left side.

His recovery has been difficult, requiring a chest tube and a feeding tube for six days, during which he was sustained on a liquid diet. The victim, who works as a photographer, now faces a long rehabilitation and significant loss of wages.

Attorney Andrea Young and her talented team gathered security footage and witness reports to help determine the defendant’s liability. They helped their client recover costs for medical expenses and property damage.

Our client was enjoying a round of golf at the Sylvania Country Club. He was with a group of friends celebrating one becoming a father. While on the course, our client was riding in the front passenger seat in a golf cart that was being driven by his friend. The friend began driving the cart erratically while looking for their golf balls, he sped the cart down a hill and turned it too sharply, causing the cart to flip upon the passenger side. The golf cart landed on our client’s ankle.

Our client called his wife, who took him immediately to Flower Hospital in Toledo, Ohio. He had closed fractures in his left foot and left ankle. He dislocated a joint in his foot and had an abrasion on his elbow. He underwent surgery on his left foot and ankle to insert hardware.

Our client came to Charles Boyk Law Firm looking for assistance. Charles Boyk helped him by negotiating his settlement, getting reductions on health insurance liens, and tracking his medical bills. In the end, our client accepted a $250,000 settlement.

Our client was making a left-hand turn onto Dorr Street when another driver blew through a red light, causing a head-on collision between the two vehicles. Our client suffered life altering injuries as a result of the accident. Some of these injuries included a fractured hip and a dislocated leg. He underwent a six-hour surgery that required hardware, and he was hospitalized for two weeks following the incident. The client required constant care, and he had to learn to walk again. Even after extensive inpatient rehabilitation treatment, physical therapy, and pain management sessions, our client is still experiencing the devasting effects of his injuries.
This accident changed our client’s life, so when he contacted our office for assistance, we knew getting him the compensation he deserved was a top priority. We filed a lawsuit against both the at-fault party and our client’s insurance company under his underinsured policy. The at-fault party only carried state minimum coverage, so we were forced to pursue the limits on the underinsured coverage. A few months before trial, our office was able to acquire the policy limits for our client.

This accident occurred in 2020 when our client was a passenger in a vehicle that was traveling through a four-way intersection in Henry County, Ohio. At the same time, a semi-truck approached this intersection, stopped at the posted stop sign, but then continued into the intersection when our client’s vehicle had the right-of-way. The semi-truck driver’s failure to yield resulted in our client’s vehicle to collide head-on with the front passenger sign of the semi-truck. The Henry County Sheriff’s Department responded to the scene and cited the at-fault party for failure to yield the right-of-way. Our client was transported from the scene via ambulance to a nearby hospital for her injuries. She had complaints of chest, pelvic, face, left ankle pain, and the paramedics described an “obvious deformity to her left ankle.” Our client was diagnosed with an extensive list of injuries including complex regional pain syndrome (CPRS), fracture of her left foot, post-traumatic migraine headaches, mild traumatic brain injury, insomnia, as well as other significant injuries. Our client has sought treatment for several years, and her doctors have noted that the client’s CPRS will continue to cause her difficulty with daily activities. CPRS can last a lifetime and will require consistent follow up treatment even if the client is someday able to go into remission.
The client contacted our office to help guide her through her legal recovery action. After taking depositions and an unsuccessful mediation, Attorney Charles Boyk and his litigation team were ultimately able to secure a $225,000 settlement for our client prior to the case proceeding to trial.

Our client was traveling northeast on Interstate Route 75 in the leftmost lane. A semi traveling in the opposite direction struck the median and sent chunks of concrete into our client’s path of travel. Our client hit the concrete chunks, causing his vehicle to go airborne. This accident caused our client to fracture his clavicle and multiple vertebrae. He also had severe pain in his back neck and knees. The accident also caused him to miss work.

Our client reached out to Charles Boyk right after the accident. Our team worked diligently on behalf of our client to ensure he was fully compensated for his injuries. In the end our team was able to negotiate a massive $200,000 settlement for our client.
