Facts

Location

Texas

What happened?

The victim was overserved at a Texas bar. He fell, hit his head, and later succumbed to his injuries.

Type of Case

1st Party Dram Shop Claim

Resolution

A pre-trial settlement that was acceptable to both parties.

Attorney Judson Daws came to us when he had a first-party Dram Shop case, a type of case that presents unique challenges and requires a high level of technical skill. “I am comfortable handling a third-party Dram Shop case. I’m not comfortable handling a first-party Dram Shop case. Those cases are technical, they’re complicated, and they’re very difficult. If you don’t do those all the time, an attorney’s going to mess it up,” Judson explained.

The case he referred to us involved a gentleman who was overserved at a bar despite being obviously intoxicated. Rather than cutting him off, the bar continued serving him, and when he left, he fell, hit his head, and was rushed to the hospital, where he later passed away from his injuries. Knowing the complexity of the legal issues involved, Judson sought a firm that had deep experience with Dram Shop law.

A Seamless Case Transition

Transitioning the case to Grossman was seamless

The person I spoke to, someone on their intake team or their transition team, got all the pertinent information from me, got all of the details from me, and made the transition just as smooth as it could have possibly been.

From the moment Judson reached out, we made sure the transition was as smooth as possible. “Transitioning the case to Grossman was seamless,” he said. “I reached out to them, and I was on the phone with somebody—they returned my call very quickly, within the hour for sure, probably within 15 minutes. The person I spoke to, someone on their intake team or their transition team, got all the pertinent information from me, got all of the details from me, and made the transition just as smooth as it could have possibly been.”

Expertise That Stood Out

He knew exactly what the law said about the facts of the case.

Every time I spoke to Cory, you could tell he knew exactly what was going on in the case. He had a vision for where the case was going, and he executed every single step of the way. It couldn’t have gone any better.

Throughout the case, Judson saw firsthand the level of preparation and execution our firm brings to the table. “Every time I spoke to Cory, you could tell he knew exactly what was going on in the case. He knew exactly what the law said about the facts of the case. He had a vision for where the case was going, and he executed every single step of the way. It couldn’t have gone any better,” he shared.

One key moment that reinforced his confidence in our firm came when we updated him on our discussions with the defense. “He told me, he said, ‘Hey, we just had a case with this same insurance company, same defense firm. So they are very familiar with us, we’re very familiar with them, and they reached out to us to schedule an early mediation.’ Now, for most people, you hear about an early mediation, that probably doesn’t ring any bells, but for attorneys that know what they’re doing, injury attorneys that do this every day, if the insurance company or if the defense attorney’s asking for an early mediation, that means they know they have some trouble. They’re in some hot water.”

A Firm You Can Trust With Your Most Complex Cases

For Judson, the decision to refer this case to us was not just about experience but about trusting that we would do right by his client. “You won’t be disappointed with the work of Grossman and his team. I mean, they do great work, very quality work, and so you don’t have to worry about passing your case off to a substandard firm because they do great work,” he said.

More than that, he emphasized why referrals like this are necessary. “As attorneys, we love working the cases ourselves, but we’ve got to have enough humility to know when a case is probably going to be better handled by someone else. And in those situations, not only does it take a little bit of weight off your shoulders, but you can rest a little easier knowing that you’ve got a competent firm handling the case.”

At Grossman Law Offices, we take that responsibility seriously. Whether it’s a complex first-party Dram Shop case or another high-stakes personal injury matter, we’re here to ensure that referring attorneys and their clients get the best representation possible.
