Partners Jeffrey W. Moryan and John P. Lacey win $20.5 million verdict
On Dec. 23rd, Partners
Jeffrey W. Moryan and
John P. Lacey won a $20.5
million jury verdict in federal court on behalf of their client Kimberly
Valentini. The lawsuit against the Ford Motor Company was brought after
the New Jersey woman suffered brain injuries in a Bronco II rollover in
1995. Messrs. Moryan and Lacey successfully argued that the car was
defective in its design and that Ford failed to warn that it was prone
to rollover.
Ms. Valentini was awarded $1.5 million for past medical expenses, $13
million for future medical costs, $5 million in compensatory damages and
$1 million for past and future lost income.
