$2.26 Million

Personal Injury (Trip and Fall)

While on vacation in the Myrtle Beach area, our client sustained multiple leg fractures from falling down the stairs at a rented beach house. The injuries necessitated numerous surgeries and resulted in substantial medical bills. Our firm made claims against the owner of the beach house, and the rental company managing and marketing the beach house. We were able to prove the stairs were defective because they did not warn regarding a substantial change in elevation and did not meet the necessary building codes and industry standards. After extensive discovery and litigation, our firm was able to recover $2.26 million for our deserving client. This settlement is one of the largest trip-and-fall settlements in Grand Strand history.

$2.1 Million

Wrongful Death (Motor Vehicle Accident)

This case involves a fatal motorcycle collision on a major highway in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Our client, while driving a motorcycle, struck a vehicle unlawfully merging into traffic. Initially, our client was accused by witnesses of speeding. After extensive accident reconstruction through surveillance footage, witness statements, and photographic studies, it was determined our client was not responsible for the accident, and we were able to secure a $2.1 million settlement for the client’s family.

$1 Million

Alcohol Liability Settlement

Our client was hit head on by a drunk driver who crossed the center line. After extensive investigation, Kinon Law Firm’s attorneys were able to determine where the drunk driver was overserved alcohol in violation of South Carolina law.

$985,000

Wrongful Death (Home Health Case)

Kinon Law Firm was honored to represent the family of an accomplished elderly gentleman who suffered a catastrophic fall while in the care of a home health agency, resulting in his death. Our client’s caregiver knew the client was a fall risk, yet failed to properly monitor him while he was walking. Although liability and cause of death were disputed in this case, through the use of surveillance footage and other documentation, we were able to prove the caregiver’s negligence played a significant role in our client’s wrongful death.

Liquor Liability/Dram Shop Case (Car Accident)

Our client was a pedestrian crossing a major highway when he was struck by a drunk driver, suffering a fractured leg that required surgery. Initially, our client was faulted by police for the collision. Claims were made against the drunk driver and multiple bars for overserving the drunk driver. Through extensive financial documentation, witness testimony, and other discovery, we were able to prove that the bars served the intoxicated driver in violation of South Carolina law. As a result, we were able to secure a $425,000 settlement.

$275,000

$250,000

Personal Injury (Slip and Fall)

Our client slipped and fell in her hotel room while on vacation in Myrtle Beach, resulting in a broken hip and hip replacement. The insurance company and hotel blamed our client for the fall and denied any responsibility. After attorney Chris Kinon filed a lawsuit, he was able to obtain documentation from the hotel regarding their cleaning policies and procedures. Mr. Kinon discovered the hotel was using unsafe cleaning chemicals on the floor of the hotel room, which caused our client to slip and fall. Ultimately, we were able to recover a $250,000 settlement for our client.
