Stefanie Capps and Kristin L. Stocks, of our Ft. Myers office, received a defense verdict in Charlotte County based on no evidence of causation. This was an admitted-liability case involving a two-level neck surgery, and our defense expert opined that the injuries were partially related due to an aggravation of degenerative changes and no clear indication of prior complaints. Prior to trial, Stefanie successfully excluded Plaintiff’s biomechanics expert. The parties were $35,000 apart prior to trial. At trial, Plaintiff asked the jury for $1.4 million.
