Recent Jury Verdicts for Powers Miller Clients

Powers Miller attorney Rich Gillespie successfully argued a case to a jury in Yuba County in March 2011. The case involved a rear end accident in which the plaintiff claimed serious permanent and ongoing injury to his arm and shoulder. In the admitted liability case, the plaintiff sought general damages of $50,000.00, however, the jury awarded only $4,000.00. The award was less than the amount offered pre-trial to plaintiff and defendant is now entitled to his costs, which exceed the judgment, at a post trial hearing.
