CEO & Founder at LlamaLab
When Jarret & Price, a prominent personal injury law firm, took on what seemed like a straightforward motor vehicle accident case, they were confident in their position. However, LlamaLab's AI-powered medical record analysis revealed crucial information that completely transformed their litigation strategy, saving years of costly litigation and protecting their reputation.
The Challenge
The case initially appeared strong:
- Clear liability in a serious motor vehicle accident
- Client reporting severe lower back injuries
- Comprehensive current medical documentation
- Seemingly perfect case for trial
Initially, we thought we had a slam-dunk case. The liability was clear, and our client's injuries seemed directly related to the accident. We were ready to take it all the way to trial.
