Case Details

Mr. DiFranco’s client, a passenger in a car chased by an unmarked Evanston police vehicle, suffered multiple injuries including a fractured jaw, fractured vertebrae, a collapsed lung, and permanent brain injuries after the pursued vehicle crashed. The brain injuries resulted in cognitive deficits, memory lapses, and lack of thought organization. Despite the City of Evanston’s denial of willful and wanton conduct and violation of police general order, an $11.2 million verdict was won for the client.
