In addition, through the use of a structured settlement, the child will receive nearly $60,000.00 (after all expenses and fees) .
Whenever a child is injured, all settlements must be approved by a court in a “Friendly Hearing” to ensure the settlement is fair to the child who will ultimately receive the money on his or her 18th birthday. In this case, the judge not only determined the settlement was fair, but expressed that this was a VERY good settlement and that the attorney did an excellent job representing the child’s interests.

Client was wearing a seatbelt and as result of the forceful impact, the seatbelt tightened fracturing a rib and rupturing her breast implants that had been in for over a decade without incident.

In this case, Client and her husband came to our office for a consultation. Client entered the United States with a visitor visa around seven years ago. Client overstayed her visa and married her husband who was a permanent resident. Client wanted to obtain her green card based on the fact that she was married to a permanent resident, however under immigration laws, Client could only obtain her green card if her husband was a United States Citizen.

In this case, Client’s family came to see DiMaria for a consultation to help their daughter who was in immigration custody. Client was a citizen of Germany who had a green card since 1976.

DiMaria filed an application for bail and client was released from jail after his family paid the bail.

Many of my clients come to my office because their family members have been arrested for minor criminal offenses but then have an immigration hold. For example, client is driving while under the influence of alcohol and gets pulled over by the police. The police arrest client for DWI and the judge sets bail at $500.
