Posted in Verdicts and Settlements on February 25, 2025

Hollywood partners Tom McCausland and Josh Nathanson, along with Amy Klotz, an appellate/litigation support attorney, secured a favorable result on an admitted liability motor vehicle accident. Our client was driving a box truck and reversed into the Plaintiff’s vehicle. Plaintiff waited twelve days to receive any treatment and then was involved in a second motor vehicle accident the day after his first appointment. He claimed neck and back injuries from the first accident and knee and shoulder injuries from the second accident. The judge granted a directed verdict on permanency and future medical bills. Opposing counsel asked the jury to award past medical bills in the amount of $120,000. The jury awarded $2,725, which should be reduced to zero.
