*Past success is no guarantee of future results. Every personal injury case is different and should be evaluated on its own merits. Some of the recoveries are estimates from Don Yearin’s memory as some of the case files have been destroyed or are inaccessible. There are countless additional settlements and recoveries which are not listed as there are too many settlements to list and most case files have been destroyed or are no longer accessible.
