Donahoe Kearney - January 2020

At Donahoe Kearney, settlements are a big deal. Yes, they are about money, but we never disclose the amount of money our clients receive — that is always confidential. But just as important is that every case represents a story — your story — of how you made it through a significant injury and what can be a long and intense legal process. These are stories of incredible courage and resilience, of lives turned upside down and put back together. We hear the stories every day. They inspire us, and they deserve to be told. If you’ve had a settlement story, we’d love to hear it from your perspective! For Donahoe Kearney clients, send in your story (bbirkey@dkllp.com), and we will make sure it gets told.

Donahoe Kearney Settlement Stories: Why Settlements Are a Big Deal

LEAVING THINGS BETTER THAN WE FOUND THEM WHAT DONAHOE KEARNEY CAN DO FOR YOU

WORKERS’ COMPENSATION If you get injured at work, don’t rely on your employer or their insurance provider to give you all the necessary information or file all the necessary paperwork. Your employer might mean well, but they don’t know everything you need. Additionally, the workers’ comp insurance company will have their lawyers, adjusters, nurses, and investigators working to deny or minimize their payout to you. Don’t fight that battle on your own. AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENTS Car accidents can lead to hospitalization, surgeries, rehab, and medical bills, plus the worries about how you will feed your family. And insurance companies will make sure to compensate you for as little as they possibly can. Know the facts, document everything, don’t speculate about any part of the accident with anyone, and give us a call. We’ll make sure you’re still able to get around town happy and in good health. If you ever need an attorney for any serious injury or want great information on any of these areas of law, make Donahoe Kearney your go- to law firm in the Washington, D.C., area. Give us a call at (202) 393-3320. We’ll send you our free books, guides, and reports to help you get started.

When you get right down to it, we focus on one thing: defending your rights and interests against insurance companies so you can focus on healing, rehab, and recovery after a serious injury. By design, we only handle a few kinds of cases, the ones that really make a difference in peoples’ lives. MEDICAL MALPRACTICE When a hospital, HMO, or doctor doesn’t follow rules that keep patients safe, and there is no system for preventing mistakes, catastrophic, life-changing injuries can happen. We hold them accountable so they provide for the future care, medical treatment, services, modifications to your home, and everything else you now need and to make our community safer. LONG-TERM DISABILITY When it comes to disability claims, the fight just isn’t fair. Disability insurance companies write the policies to limit your ability to challenge them, and worse, they know many people with legitimate, disabling medical conditions who cannot work will just give up and never take on the insurance company. But that’s why we’re in this business.
