Wrongful Death
Brassey Crawford has extensive knowledge of trucking and transportation law, having represented motor carriers, private carriers, and trucking insurers in personal injury, wrongful death, and cargo claims for many years.
Fraud

Wrongful Termination
Nick Crawford’s history of trial success speaks for itself. He has tried as many civil cases to verdict as any practicing attorney in the State of Idaho (over 120 and counting). A native of Buhl, Mr. Crawford began his career at the largest insurance defense firm in Idaho. There he managed the firm’s office in Twin Falls, Idaho, before moving to Salt Lake City to join the firm of Purser, Okazaki & Barret in 1990. In 1991, Mr. Crawford returned to Boise and resumed his insurance defense practice, where he worked until becoming a founding partner of the firm now known as Brassey Crawford in 1993. An “AV” rated attorney for more than 20 years, Mr. Crawford has extensive trial experience in all aspects of civil defense litigation. His areas of practice include defense of general negligence matters, educational entity defense, products liability, construction defect litigation, automobile litigation, insurance coverage litigation (including first-party insurance fraud claims), wrongful termination and employment defense, agricultural negligence, real estate, ski claims, professional liability, and commercial litigation. As a Fellow of the American College of Trail Lawyers and Litigation Counsel of America, Mr. Crawford has mastered the art of advocacy, exhibiting professionalism and the highest standards of ethical conduct, civility and collegiality. Mr. Crawford is frequently featured as a presenter at seminars for members of the Idaho State Bar and insurance personnel. In 2019, Mr. Crawford was a recipient of the Idaho State Bar’s Professionalism Award.
Employment Discrimination
Brassey Crawford has significant experience representing businesses and governmental agencies in employment matters and litigation, including state and federal whistleblower claims. The firm’s attorneys have successfully litigated claims involving the Fair Labor Standards Act, Idaho Wage Claim Act, Title VII, the Equal Pay Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, and the Idaho Human Rights Act.

Construction Litigation
This was a case filed in subrogation by Farm Bureau, which revolved around allegations of construction defects/negligence during the original construction of a new home in McCall, Idaho that resulted in a house fire (Farm Bureau covered the losses and pursued them in subrogation against the various construction professionals named in the suit). We represented Harris Homes, LLC/Peter Harris Construction, Inc., who was the general contractor for the underlying original construction of the home. After extensive discovery and motion practice, the matter eventually proceeded to trial. Following a multi-week trial, we presented our equitable claims to the Court, filed against the fireplace installation subcontractor, arguing in equity they must be held responsible as the party that caused the fire. That subcontractor argued, at the very least, our client was responsible for a six-figure payment, and attempted to argue it should be responsible for the entirety of the Jury’s Verdict (awarding 1,089,000 in damages). The trial court entered its Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, which favorably decided the equitable indemnity claim we filed in our client’s favor and granted our requested relief: that the at-fault subcontractor must pay the damages it caused, and held that our client was entitled to be indemnified by the subcontractor for nearly all of the damages awarded by the jury. A corresponding Judgment was entered that held our client was only responsible for payment of $47,200 of the $1,089,000 Verdict entered by the jury, and that the fireplace installation subcontractor was responsible for paying almost the entire remainder of that Verdict. The subcontractor appealed the Trial Court’s decision on our equitable claims to the Supreme Court of Idaho, the issues were briefed but the appeal was ultimately dropped before oral argument could be heard and a decision reached by the Supreme Court of Idaho.
Property Damage
Our firm represented the defendant in a motor vehicle accident case that occurred on Interstate 15 near the Idaho Falls off ramp. There were issues as to whether he should be held fully responsible for the accident. Ultimately, our client accepted responsibility for the accident, leaving the extent of the plaintiff’s damages as the only real trial issue. Defendant offered $16,000 to settle the case before the trial, which plaintiff refused. After a four-day jury trial, the jury came back in 55 minutes with a unanimous verdict. They awarded Plaintiff $8,218.00 in medical costs and $3,000 in general damages. After the jury trial, Plaintiff filed a motion for her costs. Defendant filed opposing motions for his costs and to alter or amend the judgment based on a previous payment for Plaintiff’s property damage and the reduction in her medical specials consistent with the contractual insurance adjustments and write downs. The judge denied Plaintiff’s motion for costs and granted the defendant’s motion for costs as the prevailing party and motion to alter the judgment. A final judgment was entered awarding $11,293.37 in damages against the defendant, and $2,865.68 in defendant’s costs against the plaintiff.

Personal Injury
Our firm represented RYR Construction, LLC in a case filed by an employee of a subcontractor against various other subcontractors regarding personal injury that occurred at a newly constructed home in Marsing, Idaho. We secured summary judgment in our client’s favor, as to each of the claims against them, and obtained a Judgment signed by the Court fully dismissing our clients from the case with prejudice.
Medical Malpractice
Citing the firm’s, “strong group of trial lawyers,” Chambers USA ranked Brassey Crawford in the Idaho Litigation: Medical Malpractice & Insurance Defense section, one of only four defense firms in Idaho to make the list.
Auto Accidents

Foreclosure
Our firm represented Wally Enterprises, LLC in a case filed by a potential buyer at a trustee’s sale against the trustee, auctioneer, and successful buyer. The unsuccessful bidder claimed the auctioneer and trustee violated Idaho foreclosure sale statutes regarding terms and conditions of the sale. We secured summary judgment in our client’s favor, as to each of the claims filed against them, and obtained a Judgment signed by the Court fully dismissing our clients from the case with prejudice and awarding attorney’s fees. The matter was appealed by the potential buyer to the Idaho Supreme Court on these statutory issues. In its 2022 published opinion, the Idaho Supreme Court upheld the District Court decision dismissing the claims against the defendants but reversed as to the attorney’s fee award finding no commercial transaction existed between the parties.
