Successful Verdicts & Settlements
Vehicle Rollover
$14,000,000
Structured settlement with lump sum and total lifetime payout of $14,000,000 for a married couple who sustained neck and back injuries requiring numerous
surgeries and resultant disability from their work. The Chevrolet SUV that they were passengers in rolled over 7 times in a highway accident when the defendant
driver lost control of the vehicle. By aggressively litigating the case and by hiring the most experienced vocational rehabilitation experts and forensic economists, we
were able to force the defendants to settle the case just prior to trial.

Workplace Accident
$8,600,000
Structured settlement paying out over $8.6M to family of a utility worker who died from severe burns suffered during an electrical explosion at a worksite.
We were able to obtain the settlement for the man’s widow and young children after showing that the explosion resulted from a defective switch at the worksite.

Acupuncture Malpractice
$1,400,000
Verdict at trial of $1.4M for a 53 year-old man who suffered 2nd and 3rd degree burns on his back when his acupuncturist failed to secure a heat lamp and then left
the patient unattended in the treatment room. Through the use of medical expert testimony, we proved to the jury that the three inch scar on the client’s back was
permanent and causes the plaintiff pain when he moves his body and sits on a chair. The general counsel for the defendant’s insurer advised us that this verdict is
the highest recorded verdict for an acupuncture malpractice case in the United States.

Police“Misconduct
       H a v e th e fr e e d o m
$5,500,000
       t o dr e a m b i g . . . ”
$5.5M Verdict for false arrest, conscious pain and suffering and wrongful death for the family of a 63 year-old Union City, New Jersey man who died
in police custody. The jury found that the police officers had no probable cause to arrest the man in his own home, and that the police officers were
negligent in failing to provide adequate medical attention when he suffered a severe asthma attack while in police custody. Sadly, the man died in the
street outside his home.
