Erin Johnston and Kendra Therrell Navigate a Contentious 5-Day UM Trial in Duval County

Kendra Therrell and Erin Johnston of our Jacksonville office tried an admitted liability contested damages 5-day UM trial in Duval County, a known volatile venue for insurance carriers. The at-fault driver was still a party to the case but was absent from the courtroom most of the week, leaving an empty chair. Numerous motions and objections were made before and during the trial to combat the Plaintiff’s improper arguments and comments, particularly regarding UM coverage and insurance. The trial lasted all five days. After 3 hours of deliberations, the jury returned a verdict for an amount within the UM policy limits, lower than our last offer, and a finding of no permanency.
