Partner Tom Lincoln, along with associate Dana Nicholas, obtained a favorable jury verdict representing a plaintiff who was injured in a golf cart accident. LGC's client was a passenger in a golf cart when the distracted driver drove the cart over a curb on a golf course, causing the cart to crash. The client injured his ankle and neck in the accident.
After a four-day trial, the jury awarded LGC's client $234,604.22, which was nearly double the highest pre-trial settlement offer made by the driver's insurance company. LGC's client will also be entitled to an award of substantial costs through trial as the prevailing party. Congratulations to Tom and Dana on their victory.
