Case Details

Jury found damages to be $1,500,000, with 80% fault to defendant. The net verdict is $1,200,000. The last offer was $40,000 the day of trial and the defense lawyer recommended in closing that the jury give $5,000 and assess 50% fault. The policy was $100,000 and I demanded it a long time ago-AAA responded with $23,000.

Additional Notes

No special damages, no MRIs, no X-rays, no surgery, no complaints at the ER, and no future cost report. Client was diagnosed with a rib avulsion about 1.5 years after the crash. It was all about brutal honesty and delivering the facts as they were. The jury was out for 4.5 hours. The defense lawyer left the room immediately with his cell phone in hand. He left his 23 yr old client crying at the table for 20 minutes while he made his calls. An appeal hasn’t been filed yet, but we’re sure it’s coming.
