Day in the Life Videos - Evidence Video

A professionally produced Day in the Life video is the most profound way to demonstrate the plaintiff’s physical injuries and actual damages.

The video allows the jury to assess the plaintiff’s current living conditions and requirements for special care and equipment.

A Day in the Life video helps the jury and defendants feel the victim’s pain and suffering, see their struggle and feel the impact of their injury or loss.

By showing the plaintiff’s daily activities, it captures their quality of life and how they have been affected by injury, illness and pain.

In some cases, portions of the Day In the Life video may be used to reinforce testimony of an expert on the witness stand.

The Day In The Life video also establishes support for non-economic damages like pain and suffering, loss of society, loss of companionship and impact on family caretakers. These videos are used at trial, mediation and settlement conferences.

A Progressive Video is a series of Day in the Life Videos that establishes a timeline. The video shows the plaintiff over an extended period of time and is used to demonstrate pain and suffering over the course of treatment and various stages of recovery. Videotaping begins soon after the injury and continues in stages until the conclusion of the case. Progressive Videos are used at trial, mediation and settlement conferences.

CLIENT TESTIMONIAL

The quality of their filming is exceptional, but their work goes way beyond that.

Evidence Video put together a compelling documentary that showed everyone what my families had gone through. I’m happy to say that we we recently put together…significant compensation in these two wrongful death cases. I could not have done it without Evidence Video.

I don't do endorsements. I don't do promotions. I couldn't wait to do this one.

I can account for, and I am not exaggerating the number, several hundred million dollars in outcomes, both by way of settlement and by way of verdict, where the work produce of Evidence Video was essential to the outcome.Read more

Gera-Lind is one of a kind. Her breadth of experience is a true asset to any attorney working with her. Recently, Gera-Lind and her team created a Day in the Life video for one of my cases involving a minor plaintiff. Per Gera-Lind's suggestion, she captured several shots from therapy, and had great side-by-side comparisons of the plaintiff and her younger siblings performing the same tasks, which helped the jury to appreciate the true extent of her disability. Thank you, Gera-Lind, for helping to bring about justice for our client.Read more

She has been a leader in this field since I was a law clerk at Corboy and DeMetrio, and I know that firm used Gera-Lind almost exclusively and even today my firm and other firms in the city doing medical malpractice use Gera-Lind exclusively.

In terms of bringing forward the nature and extent of injury by a day-in-the-life video and photographic evidence, Evidence Video does a wonderful job in doing that and that's why we hire them on all our catastrophic cases.

We have 41 lawyers in our office. I can tell you that every one of the lawyers in this firm knows if you have a substantial case, and I mean a seven-figure case, that you want to turn into a really substantial case, our hidden tool, our strategic weapon, is Gera-Lind Kolarik and Evidence Video.

The biggest factor in our settlement was to have this video to allow the defendant and the defense attorneys to see what the jury was going to see of this young man and how his life has been affected.

Gera-Lind and her team of Evidence Video always do a terrific job … I wouldn’t present a big case without Evidence Video.

When the case resolved itself, lead counsel took me aside and said that the documentary video was the single most influential piece of information that we gave them, and the defense counsel said, quote, "I don't know who did that and I don't know what it cost you, but you got more than your money's worth out of that documentary."Read more
