Robert W. Sullivan, ESQ.

Over the years, we have obtained over $1 billion for our clients in settlements and judgments at trial. Few, if any, law firms have had such a long track record of winning cases and obtaining such excellent results for their clients. In this way, we maintain a reputation for taking on the largest and most aggressive insurance companies and businesses. We do not back down until justice is served. Just a few examples of our outstanding results include:

• $150,000,000 verdict for a mother and son in a wrongful death claim where the insurance carrier offered $35,000 before trial.
• $276,000 verdict for the client in a disputed liability motor vehicle collision where the insurance carrier offered $30,000 before trial.
• $4,500,000 settlement on a traumatic brain injury case resulting from a work-related stress injury resulting in a stroke.
• $4,000,000 settlement on a traumatic brain injury case resulting from a motor vehicle collision.
• $2,000,000 settlement on a medical malpractice claim which resulted in complete paralysis.
• $2,000,000 settlement resulting from a tour bus vs. motor vehicle collision.
• $1,500,000 settlement resulting from a motor vehicle vs. pedestrian collision.
• $1,000,000 settlement resulting from a wrongful death of a pedestrian.

Collectively, our firm has over 100 years of legal experience handling serious injury or wrongful death cases for injured parties only. Between our founding partner, David Sullivan, and Of Counsel, Mr. Jude Basile, we have tried over 100 cases all throughout California with hundreds of millions of dollars in jury verdicts awarded.

As a member of the distinguished Inner Circle of Advocates, Mr. Jude Basile has been recognized as one of the 100 best Plaintiffs lawyers in the United States. He has also been named Trial Lawyer of the Year by the Central Coast Trial Lawyers Association several times. Similarly, Mr. David Sullivan’s jury verdicts have been published in national magazines such as the Daily Journal.

At Sullivan, Rivera, Osuna & Sullivan, we know that a physical or emotional injury can be devastating. Unanticipated injuries can be stressful, expensive, and cause significant interruptions to your personal finances. For that reason, our office fronts the costs for any legal services so that you are not burdened with additional expenses. Our clients pay no money out-of-pocket to retain our services. The best part? You only pay a fee if we win!

We are trial lawyers, not settlement lawyers. To ensure that we are getting the best results for all our clients, we are not afraid to take your case to trial if it is being wrongfully denied or undervalued by the insurance company. Because of our experience and reputation in the legal community, defense attorneys and insurance companies know that our firm will is ready to battle in every case. This reputation allows us to obtain the maximum amount of money and benefits on behalf of our clients.
