Mario Errico, of the Jacksonville office, received a defense verdict after a very contentious 3 day trial. The young 26 year old Plaintiff was claiming neck, back, and knee pain related to the 2016 rear-end car accident. Plaintiff had accumulated around $16,000.00 of medical treatment over the last two years, and was seeking significant amounts of money for many years of future pain management until her own doctor testified that he would only give her a few years of additional conservative treatment. During closing argument, Plaintiff’s counsel asked for a $150,000.00 verdict.

Mario had a filed a Proposal For Settlement for $12,500.00 against Plaintiff’s Proposal For Settlement for $20,000.00. The jury ultimately awarded $15,000.00, which after setoffs triggered the defense’s Proposal for Settlement.
