Arizona personal injury firm secured substantial recoveries, UM/UIM advocacy, and lien negotiations
PHOENIX, AZ, UNITED STATES, November 4, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Elmm Law Group is highlighting two recent results for injured clients: a $737,000.00 recovery in a serious slip-and-fall case and a $253,000.00 settlement for a client injured by an uninsured driver.
These results reflect two recurring challenges in personal injury claims: insurers may minimize serious injuries or deny responsibility, and a settlement’s headline amount doesn’t tell the whole story when medical liens and bills still need to be resolved.
$737,000.000 Recovery After Initial $0 Offer
After suffering serious injuries in a slip-and-fall accident in Phoenix, the client was initially told there was essentially no case. The insurance company initially offered $0. At the same time, the defense denied responsibility and refused to fairly compensate the claim despite the client’s injuries and the accident’s significant impact on the client’s life.
Elmm Law Group kept fighting for the client, building the claim through investigation, evidence, medical documentation, and sustained advocacy. The case ultimately resulted in a final recovery of $737,000.00 for the client.
“Insurance companies often underestimate slip-and-fall cases, but serious injuries deserve serious attention,” said Gordana Mikalacki, Founder and Managing Partner of Elmm Law Group. “This result shows why preparation, persistence, and a willingness to fight can matter when an insurer refuses to offer fair compensation.”
$253,000.00 UM/UIM Settlement with 61% Recovered After Liens
In the second matter, the client was injured in a car accident in Phoenix by an uninsured driver. Because the at-fault driver had no insurance, the client’s recovery depended on the Uninsured Motorist/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) coverage available under her own auto policy. The client had made the important decision to carry that coverage. Elmm Law Group advocated for a $253,000.00 settlement and worked to eliminate or reduce multiple medical liens. After the firm completed medical bills and lien negotiations, the client received 61% of the settlement.
“UM/UIM coverage can be one of the most important protections on an auto insurance policy when an at-fault driver has no insurance or insufficient coverage,” said Mikalacki. “Understanding lien law and negotiating liens effectively can make a meaningful difference in what an injured person ultimately keeps.”
Together, the results underscore the value of investigating the facts, documenting the medical impact of an injury, evaluating all available insurance coverage, and protecting the client’s net recovery through the final stage of a claim.
