California Plaintiff’s Lien Reduced by Over $80,000

MASSIVE ensured a California plaintiff was able to take home his full net settlement despite a lien that was more than double the settlement amount.

After suffering from a failed knee replacement and having to receive additional treatment due to the implant’s failure, the plaintiff was hit with a lien of almost $85,000, a bill that would have whipped out his comparatively small $30,000 settlement, leaving him with nothing.

Although relevant statutes say that Medicare Advantage Plans such as his are entitled to the entirety of a plaintiff’s net settlement, MASSIVE’s expert lien resolution attorneys argued diligently on plaintiff’s behalf. Our persistent negotiation led to the lien holder agreeing to reduce the final lien to just $1,000, a much more reasonable sum and one that allowed the plaintiff to receive nearly his full settlement.
