-Demanding

Prior to his accident, Michael Noxon was an intelligent, attractive man who worked hard and enjoyed life. As a motorcycle repairman and salesman for Larry Lilley Motorcycles, he was well compensated for his job, which included test riding new motorcycles. However, on March 14, 2012, Michael’s promising life took an unexpected turn during a scheduled test ride of a newly assembled motorcycle when the motorcycle spun out of control and Michael was injured. Due to injury-related amnesia, Michael has never been able to recount exactly what happened during the accident. What is known is that he suffered a traumatic brain injury that caused post-concussion symptoms, cognitive dysfunction, depression, anxiety, a fractured left collarbone, and emotional and physical difficulties. Unfortunately, as with some types of brain trauma, the extent of Michael’s injuries were not fully discernible, and therefore Michael himself did not receive the rehabilitation he needed. Michael’s brain injuries were such that he did not realize how badly off he was and continued to try to find work. Unfortunately, his injuries had affected his cognitive function so much that he was unable to perform more basic jobs, such as cashier. Even after securing an attorney, Michael’s case was an uphill battle. The defendants refused to acknowledge the nature and extent of Michael’s injuries and therefore, no productive settlement negotiations took place. Therefore, Michael’s attorney, Odjaghian Law Group, had to push for a trial on all issues. Due to their extensive preparation and aggressive trial strategy, the judge issued a 100% Finding and Award for Disability. Odjaghian Law Group was subsequently able to negotiate a settlement of $2,750,000.00 to ensure that Michael could live the rest of his life without financial worry and with the ongoing medical care he needed. Odjaghian Law Group also facilitated the purchase of an annuity so that unscrupulous individuals would not take advantage of Michael’s cognitive impairments in the future.
