Another Win for Defendants!
kimi / 0 Comments /Attorneys Jerri Johnson and Laurie Stayton achieved a defense verdict from a downtown Los Angeles jury in favor of their client, a janitorial company. Plaintiff was rushing back inside a mall and took a shortcut through a planter in the parking lot when he tripped and fell. He claimed a broken finger and Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (“CRPS”).
Acker & Whipple was assigned the case on the eve of trial, with prior counsel retaining neither liability or damages experts. A rebuttal witness was used to demonstrate the flaws in plaintiff’s doctors’ opinions and destroy the credibility of the damages claims. Jurors also found no negligence on the part of the defendant.
