On August 29, 2004, Donna Mack-Iwanski, was a passenger on her husband’s motorcycle. As they were traveling in Bayside, Wisconsin, on Brown Deer Road, a driver suddenly pulled out from a side street and smashed into the motorcycle. It became apparent to everyone at the scene of the accident that she had received a very serious leg injury as a result of the impact.

Mrs. Mack-Iwanski was transported from the scene of the accident to Froedtert Memorial Lutheran Hospital. Upon her arrival, the doctors did everything they could to try to save her leg. Unfortunately, after numerous surgeries, the doctors were unable to do so and were forced to amputate her leg below the knee. Mrs. Mack-Iwanski was a model patient. From the date of the accident forward, she had a positive outlook and reminded herself that the accident could have been worse. Throughout her physical therapy and follow-up appointments, she worked tirelessly to get herself back to as normal a life as possible.

As a result of the accident, Mrs. Mack-Iwanski incurred approximately $260,000.00 in medical expenses. Thankfully, she is now able to go back to work with the use of a prosthetic device. Attorney Jason F. Abraham was able to get the insurance company to go to mediation before filing a lawsuit. After a number of hours of mediation, Attorney Abraham was able to get the case resolved where the total payouts will amount to $2.9 million.
