Defense Verdict Where Jury Found No Liability on UM Carrier in Case Involving a Pedestrian Being Struck by a Motorcycle While Training Service Animal

Stefanie Capps, of our Ft. Myers office, won another defense verdict in Naples in under an hour deliberation. The jury found the underinsured motorist carrier had no liability in an accident involving a pedestrian being struck by a motorcycle as he was crossing the street while training a service animal. The accident resulted in an open-leg fracture and trauma-alert airlift from the scene with post-accident post traumatic stress disorder. Plaintiff, who was represented by a very well-known plaintiffs’ attorney, asked the jury for $3.6 million, and six figures had been offered prior to trial.
