$17.5 Million Settlement
Yolivan Multimedia assisted their client in a suit against a driver and his insurance company.
Case Summary:
A teenage girl sunbathing on a North Florida beach had her head run over and de-gloved by a Toyota SUV. The driver fled the scene and was spotted on the beach days later. The driver denied any involvement in the incident. When the insurance company was notified, it failed to tender its policy limits in accordance to Florida Law. The teenage girl suffered catastrophic brain damage and was left in a vegetative state.
The Assignment:
Yolivan Multimedia created an interactive multimedia presentation for use in mediation which guided the viewers through the facts, consequences, and potential outcomes of the case. The key is that the presentation needed to be operated and viewed with or without a technician from a common household DVD player. The presentation combined video, case specific computer graphics, bulleted facts, photographs, and documents all in one package.
Result:
Mediation settlement of $17.5 million, considered one of the largest pretrial settlements in the State of Florida.

We then turned our attention to creating an interactive multimedia presentation for use in mediation which would guide the viewers through the facts, consequences, and potential outcomes of the case. The presentation combined expert testimony, video, case specific medical illustrations, computer graphics, bulleted facts, photographs, and documents all in one package.
