Representative case results

Lipcon has recovered over $100 million for clients injured by the negligence of others, spanning negligent security, nursing home abuse, motorcycle, trucking, and boating cases, and other catastrophic injuries. Representative case results* include:

Among his notable case strategies, Lipcon secured a $2.25 million settlement for Jesus Gonzalez, an inmate who was left paralyzed after being ejected from an MVM prisoner transport van during a crash, a case several attorneys had turned down because they assumed the federal government, rather than a private contractor, was responsible. Lipcon recognized that a private subcontractor handled the transport, bypassed federal sovereign immunity by suing that company rather than the government, and prevented the client’s criminal record from being used against the claim, two strategic decisions that preserved the case and produced the recovery.
