$2,000,000

Estate of Brett McDaniel v. Paducah Ambulance Service. Thirteen-year-old Brett McDaniel was riding his bicycle in Golconda, Illinois, when he entered an intersection and was struck by an ambulance. The ambulance company vigorously contested that it was not at fault. After a two-week trial during the summer of 2015 in Pope County, Illinois, the jury ruled in favor of our client and awarded $2,000,000 to our client. The jury felt that young Brett was 40% at fault so the final net judgment was for $1,200,000. This was a record-setting verdict for Pope County, Illinois. The Defendant paid the verdict and did not appeal.
