RICKY’S STORY
The Incident: A Routine Day Turned Tragic
Ricky’s accident occurred while working on an extended trailer. A 13-foot fall onto asphalt left him with multiple fractures, including his pelvis and humerus. The initial trauma led to five surgeries on his shoulder and two on his hip, compounded by infections and lengthy recoveries. What began as a temporary setback became a life-altering ordeal.
Initial Challenges: Emotional and Financial Struggles
Ricky and his family faced immense emotional and financial strain. As the sole provider, Ricky was unprepared for the prolonged recovery. His initial worker’s compensation offer of $18,000 was inadequate, prompting him and his wife to seek legal counsel. “We didn’t even know if we had a case, but we needed help,” Ricky shared.

After researching local attorneys, Ricky’s wife suggested Silva Injury Law. The team’s approachability and honesty during their first meeting gave the family confidence. “Michael Silva made us feel welcome and explained everything clearly, even when the case was uncertain,” Ricky explained.
