Wimer & Jobe gets results. We think outside of the box and devise innovative strategies to win cases. At the inception of every case we develop a strategic plan that is constantly tweaked to maximize the best result for our clients.

Rules of Professional Conduct and client confidentiality prevent us from mentioning specific amounts we have recovered on individual cases. We can say that we have recovered millions of dollars for our clients. Some examples of how we have maximized recovery:

From Frivolous to a Fortune

We represented a professional suing his disability insurance company for failure to pay his claim. Just before trial, the defendant told us it expected to recover all of its attorney fees from our client because the lawsuit was obviously frivolous. We were able to convince the jury that the lawsuit was valid and that our client had been severely damaged. The jury awarded millions of dollars and an amount more than 40 times the defendant’s highest settlement offer before trial.

Maximizing the Claim

We represented a family whose home had been damaged by fire. Most of the damage was caused by smoke. The insurance company offered a paltry sum on the claim before we were hired. Through mediation, we were able to secure a settlement for the client 16 times greater than the original offer and approximating the total value of their home and land.

Taking Over in Mid-Stream

A client who was suing her employer for harassment and discrimination came to us after her original attorney persuaded her to settle the case before trial. We analyzed the case and advised the client that the settlement amount was too low. The client rejected that settlement and, several months later, we secured a settlement of four times what her first attorney suggested she accept.
