Following the lengthy and hard fought trial, the Plaintiff’s attorney asked the jury to return a verdict for $5.5 million in economic damages and $9 million for pain and suffering. We are pleased to report that, as opposed to returning a $14.5 million dollar verdict, the jury returned a verdict in favor of our clients.
