Client, a 31-year-old man, was stabbed at a gas station. An underage and unsupervised employee failed to call 911 and/or the police early enough for first responders to arrive and render aid to what was described by experts as a survivable wound. A jury deliberated for 4.5 hours and returned a verdict of negligence and liability of the defendants, awarding $9.5 million to the decedent’s family for pain and suffering and loss of society and companionship.
