From Thousands to Millions: How a surgery animation boosted a settlement 11-fold

The Law Offices of Fernando D. Vargas contacted allrise to craft a visual strategy that would effectively illustrate the trauma their client endured during a necessary surgery caused by the defendant’s negligence. Using the surgeon’s operative report, we meticulously recreated the surgery, focusing on the critical steps in a way that any jury member could easily understand. By highlighting each stage with precision and detail, we vividly conveyed the pain and stress of the procedure, evoking an emotional response that resonates deeply with jurors.

However, the defense didn’t wait for the jury’s reaction. After seeing the compelling visual, they increased their initial offer by 11 times, raising it from $200,000 to a staggering $2.2 million.

The Law Offices of Fernando D. Vargas said:

The case settled just before trial for $2.2 million. The animation was instrumental in getting the defense to increase their offer from $200,000, which was their last offer before we produced the animation.
