Case Details

Known as one of the most famous personal injury cases in the world. This happened when Stella Lieback bought a coffee at a drive-thru when the coffee spilled in her lap leading to burns on her upper legs and groin. She initially wanted $20,000, but the judge awarded her $160,000 when they realized that McDonald’s coffee was hotter than it should be. The case continued and she was eventually awarded $2.7 million.
