Douglas Miller, of the Pensacola office, obtained a defense verdict in Santa Rosa County. Doug was representing a site contractor who had been hired to work on a new subdivision to clear land and dispose of debris. It was undisputed that debris from the land clearing had been buried on site, making a complete defense verdict unlikely. The developer was offered $50,000 at mediation and, at trial, boarded $600,000 in hard damages. After a four day trial, the jury came back with a verdict of $27,000.
