Furry-Going v. Reich
This was a clear liability case (head-on) where the big fight was about damages. She suffered a knee injury which left her so she had to wear flat shoes all of the time. Otherwise, she had a pretty good recovery. The case went to trial because the defense lawyer refused to offer more than $20,000 in a case where she had nearly $15,000 in medical bills. Result: Verdict for $186,000.
