2016 Morgan & Morgan VVerdicts Magazine Selected 2016 Verdicts - A Closer Look Fighting for the rights of workers, drivers, those who’ve suf- fered from medical malpractice, and others is something we do every day at Morgan & Morgan. It’s what it means to be “For The People,” and it entails working tirelessly to get our clients the compensation they not only need, but that justice demands.

Our firm has grown, in the nearly 30 years since its incep- tion into one of the largest plaintiffs’ firms in the country. In that time, it has stayed true to its pledge never to represent insurance carriers or large companies, and remains deeply committed to its clients, community, and employees.

This year, we’re growing again.

We’re launching Verdicts Magazine to showcase some of the biggest successes throughout our practice. The publication will cover many of the cases won by our attorneys in 2016 and spotlight some of our best work.

Some of our verdicts have been substantial. They represent examples of situations where insurance companies, employ- ers, doctors, and others thought they could get away with irreparably damaging the lives of our clients and their loved ones, with no concern for the many lifetimes of suffering they might have caused.

There is the case in which a seven-year-old, barely embarked on life, relied on a doctor in Tennessee to fix a potentially deadly medical condition. Instead, the child was left heav- ily disfigured, and the doctor altered medical records and warped facts to cover for his mistake.

There’s also a lawsuit in which Glenda Williams, a mid- dle-aged woman living in Georgia, was struck head-on in DeKalb County, suffering post-concussion syndrome and further traumatic brain injury. The perpetrator, a pizza de- livery driver, was shielded by a company all too willing to dispute the effect their employee had and the responsibility they now owed to Glenda.

These are just some of the biggest cases we’ve litigated in the past year. Inside this magazine, you’ll find scores of the verdicts reported by attorneys in 2016. Distributed through- out are the five biggest verdicts of the year. All of the results exemplify what our employees at every level of our organi- zation build their foundation on: helping clients regain their lives by pursuing justice for them and their loved ones.

Matt Morgan Attorney 01

Valdez vs. City of Orlando Verdict: $1,100,000 Pre-trial offer: $0 VAttorney: Matt Morgan

One of our premier verdicts was against the City of Orlando on behalf of Trino Valdez, an Orange County res- ident who made the “mistake” of driv- ing down East Robinson Street. The re- sult was a laurel oak crushing him and his car as he drove to turn in a form to chaperone his daughter’s field trip.

With the city unwilling to own up to the fact that the tree should have been removed long ago, Mr. Valdez was fac- ing enormous medical expenses and a broken back for an accident that was no fault of his own. Matt Morgan was the quarterback on this case, and suc- cessfully carried it through two trials to get his client the compensation he needed.

5 Q: Can you describe the nature of the case?

Matt Morgan: On a beautiful clear night as he was traveling down a busy roadway in his vehicle, a large laurel oak tree fell on our client. The tree was known to be in poor condition by the named defendant for five years prior to it falling.

The tree was obviously in need of removal. However, the city failed to take the remedial measure of removing the tree.

Q: How did the outcome end up being so notable?

MM: I believed in the case. It was very difficult to prove. Most people think a tree falling is an act of God. We had to work through thousands of pages to find one report regarding this particular tree. Once we found the report, it was as clear as day. However, the defendant still refused to pay.

Q: What was one of the biggest hurdles you faced?

MM: Find the smoking gun document. There are over 100,000 trees in Orlando. Finding a report before the date of loss for one tree seemed to be a very difficult task. Once we found it, it was just a matter of convincing the jury that it was not reasonable to allow this tree to remain once they learned it was in poor condition.

6 Q: What was the most memorable anecdote from this trial?

MM: We had to try this case twice. The defense was con- vinced we would lose. I was convinced we would win if I could select a fair jury. I lost a lot of sleep over this case before the second trial, mainly because we were so right.

What kept me up at night on this case was the thought that a biased jury could get the case and justice would not prevail. It made the jury selection process that much more critical. The thought of them getting a free pass on this one made me ill.

Q: What makes this case so important?

MM: It highlights the importance of the jury system. It is the ultimate equalizer. In this case, justice prevailed. It was David v. Goliath. My client had multiple surgeries as he was crushed in his car.

The defendant was clearly liable in my opinion. And they de- cided they just did not want to pay the fair value. The verdict brought tears to my eyes because it confirmed my belief that we have the greatest judicial system in the world. There is no greater feeling than personally seeing justice through for your client.

Q: How did the client react after receiving news of the verdict?

MM: He was over the moon. It wasn’t about the money for any of us. We were all in this case for justice. Truly.

Keith Mitnik Attorney 02

Price v. R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company Verdict: $6,400,000 Pre-trial offer: $0 VAttorney: Keith Mitnik & Greg Prysock with assistance from Tony Luciano and Katy Massa

We’ve done a lot to make sure tobacco companies pay for the damage they’ve caused to families through deception, false advertising, and the willful caus- ing of addiction — scoring north of $90 million for clients. In this case, Ann Price sought to make R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company pay for the damage smoking wreaked on her beloved husband.

Keith Mitnik and Greg Prysock led the charge with the help of Tony Luciano and Katherine Massa. The four have worked tirelessly to obtain several dif- ferent tobacco litigation verdicts from R.J. Reynolds. Here, Mitnik and Prysock focus on this case in particular.

9 Q: Can you describe the case? What happened to the plaintiff, and what’s interesting about it?

Greg Prysock: The case was against R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company regarding the death of a long-time smoker, John Price. Mr. Price started smoking at the age of 12 and was addicted by the age of 16.

He smoked two packs a day of R.J. Reynolds brands for 40 years, before being diagnosed with Chronic Obstructive Pul- monary Disease in the mid-1990s. Mr. Price suffered with COPD for the next 15 years, ultimately becoming bed-ridden and tethered to an oxygen tank. He died in 2010. The plaintiff in our case was Ann Price, the surviving spouse.

Keith Mitnik: The claims involve fraud by concealment, con- spiracy, product defect, and negligence.

These cases are unique because of the challenge presented taking on the most savvy, experienced, heavily armed litiga- tion machine in the history of injury lawsuits.

10 Q: How did you end up with the outcome?

KM: We spend a lot of time studying cigarette companies’ litigation strategies and figuring out how to thwart them. If you think of us as a train headed for what we call justice, they are masters at derailing the train.

We were able to diffuse the dynamite they planted along the tracks. Some of it was done by heading them off with pre-tri- al motions. Some of it was done by framing the case correctly to withstand the blasts we knew were coming. And some of it was done the old-fashioned way, with shootouts during the trial.

Q: What makes this case notable?

GP: Mrs. Price was the sole survivor. The verdict was for the loss of her husband and the pain and suffering she has en- dured.

In the last year, she has been diagnosed with dementia, which has been progressing rapidly. Tragically, after caring for her husband for 15 years, she now needs someone to care for her.

11 Greg Prysock Attorney Q: What was the most challenging thing about this case?

KM: Overcoming the argument that it was the smoker’s choice and he assumed the risk.

GP: Mrs. Price couldn’t testify at trial because of her medical and mental conditions.

Q: What made this case memorable?

KM: Opening a pack of cigarettes during closing argument, slowly pulling one cigarette out, after another, and tossing each one in a small mesh trash can so everyone could see them piling up. It takes a long time to pull 20 cigarettes out at a leisurely pace.

Then, opening a second pack to make the point just how many cigarettes two packs a day really is! It meant the client was lighting up every 15 minutes or so and each cigarette would take about ten minutes to smoke. He spent his whole day smoking.

He spent his whole life immersed in a steady stream of nic- otine. The power of nicotine addiction became very real at that moment. It was what we call “a moment of clarity.”

13 Q: Why are cases like this so important?

KM: The thing that makes cigarettes so dangerous is nicotine addiction. It drives daily consumption to extremes, 20 - 40 cigarettes a day, starting first thing in the morning. It is this kind of mass daily consumption that causes overexposure and eventually disease and death.

Cigarette companies can take the amount of nicotine down to insignificant levels. They can grow tobacco without signifi- cant amounts of nicotine. Taking nicotine out of the equation would mean people would not smoke with such extreme fre- quency and could stop anytime they wanted, without having to struggle with drug-driven addiction and relapse.

The problem is cigarette companies don’t want to do with- out addiction. Why? Because profits go through the ceiling when consumption goes through the ceiling. These suits are aimed at imposing economic pressure on the companies to do the right thing and take the addiction out. The beginning of change is to face consequences.

GP: Many people wrongly assume that all of the cases against tobacco companies settled and those who have suffered from tobacco-related diseases or the surviving family mem- bers who have lost loved ones have been compensated.

In fact, the tobacco companies only settled the cases with the states for reimbursement of medical expenses. Families who have suffered still must pursue their individual claims and the tobacco companies take pride in the fact that they don’t normally settle cases.

14 Q: How did the client react after hearing the verdict?

DH: The client’s family was overwhelmed by a feeling that they had taken a stand on something that really mattered and John did not die in vain. There were hugs and tears.

GP: Mrs. Price was overjoyed. She can now get the caregiver support she needs to live an independent life as long as she can with her progressing disease.

Keenan Nix Attorney 03

Williams vs. Papa John’s International Verdict: $11,000,000 Pre-trial offer: $100,000 VAttorney: Keenan Nix with assistance from Chris Graddock

Our biggest verdict of 2016 came in the form of a massive judgment against Papa John’s, one of the nation’s largest pizza providers.

Keenan Nix, the attorney at the helm of this case and a partner in our Atlanta office, focuses his practice on a vari- ety of areas. He was assisted by Chris Graddock, a longtime partner of his.

17 Q: Can you describe the nature of the case? Who wronged whom?

Keenan Nix: This was a garden-variety car wreck case during which my client, Glenda Williams, suffered a concussion, or traumatic brain injury, when a Papa John’s pizza delivery driver crossed the center line on a rainy day and caused a nasty head-on collision.

Glenda was previously represented by another attorney who failed to recognize the life-changing nature of her injuries, and was attempting to settle her case pre-suit for roughly $100,000! By the grace of God, Glenda found me. I imme- diately recognized the devastating signs and symptoms of post-concussion syndrome and got her the medical care she needed to get her life back on track.

Q: How did the case proceed from there?

KN: In the meantime, I filed suit and put Papa John’s on no- tice. I told them this was a seven-figure case that we were fully prepared to try if they continued to undervalue Glenda’s claim based on her prior lawyer’s misevaluation.

Before trial, the parties went to mediation where the case was unable to be resolved. So we continued to prepare for trial. We were confident that a jury would recognize Glenda’s devastating injuries and return a just verdict reflecting the totality of misfortune that had been visited upon an innocent woman through no fault of her own.

18 Q: How did you end up with such a notable outcome?

KN: The blockbuster result at trial is a result of three things: First, Glenda Williams truly was devastated by her brain inju- ry, and our expert medical witnesses and layperson damag- es witnesses did a phenomenal job of showing the jury how dramatically and profoundly these injuries changed her life.

Our damages theme at trial was that there is no more person- al injury than a brain injury because our brains control who we are and how we relate to the world in which we live. And when you injure the brain, that’s serious and it’s personal.

Q: What was the second?

KN: Second, Papa John’s never took Glenda’s injuries seri- ously, because she looked perfectly healthy on the surface, and that is the challenge presented by these TBI cases. Trau- matic brain injury is called the silent epidemic, because the microscopic damage to the brain typically cannot be visual- ized on CT and MRI.

But neuropsychological testing proves the damage is done, and family and friends attest to dramatic changes in cogni- tion, behavior, and emotions that can only be explained by the concussive event. So, TBI survivors are called the “walk- ing wounded,” and we tell the jury up front that what you see is not what you get and all is not well that looks well.

In other words, Glenda may look normal on the outside, but when you peel back the layers and closely examine every aspect of her life, you will discover that she is profoundly in- jured and a shell of her former self. Quite obviously, the jury got it, and awarded a just verdict that spoke the truth about the value of human pain, suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life.

19 Q: And last?

KN: Third, we were committed to taking this case to verdict if Papa John’s did not pay the fair settlement value of the case, which we believed was $2.5 million. So, when Papa John’s of- fered $1 million the day before trial, we rejected it and went to trial. Quite obviously, our resolve was richly rewarded, and you cannot overstate the importance of being ready, willing, and able to try your case in the face of substandard settle- ment offers.

Q: What was most challenging about this case aNd why?

KN: As discussed above, the greatest challenge in mild trau- matic brain injury cases is convincing a jury to award millions of dollars to someone who looks as good, if not better, on the outside than any of them. It’s easy to persuade a jury that a seven-figure verdict is warranted if your client is dead or devastated by outwardly visible injuries like paraplegia, quadriplegia, or amputation.

But if your client is claiming she suffered a life-changing invis- ible brain injury, and her CT/MRI scans are normal, she looks better than your average juror, and the defense experts say she’s faking, then you’ve got an uphill battle on damages that can only be overcome with integrity, competent medical ex- perts, and credible fact witnesses who knew the client both before and after the injury.

Q: What is a memorable anecdote from the trial?

KN: The defense kept emphasizing that “even the plaintiff’s lawyers will agree that IF Glenda Williams even suffered a brain injury, it was only a ‘mild’ brain injury.” In response, I explained to the jury that mild does not mean minor or in- significant.

20 I asked them who in their right mind would volunteer to live the rest of their life with even a little brain damage that robs them of the ability to function the way they once did before traumatic brain injury came knocking on their door through no fault of their own? Suffice it to say, there were no volun- teers.

Q: What makes these cases so important?

KN: It is simple: In America, victims of corporate negligence like Glenda Williams do not have to let big bully corporations tell them what their case is worth with a “take it or leave it” arrogance that is so commonplace. Under our American sys- tem of justice, Glenda Williams can take her just cause to a jury of her peers and let them decide the value of human pain, suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life.

So, when Papa John’s said “no way this case is worth more than a million bucks,” we begged to differ and let the jury speak! Importantly, the jury’s $11 million verdict spoke the truth about what Glenda suffered as direct result of corpo- rate negligence and resoundingly confirmed the beauty of our civil justice system.

Q: How did the client feel or react after the news of the verdict?

KN: Shocked, relieved, affirmed, vindicated, and thankful!

Shocked, because of the size of the verdict. Relieved, be- cause the uncertainty of jury trials is a heavy burden to bear. Affirmed, because every jury verdict is tantamount to a re- jection or acceptance of the plaintiff. Vindicated, because a just verdict in her favor confirmed the rightness of her cause. And thankful, because with the verdict comes hope for a brighter future despite the adversity of her past.

David Henry Attorney 04

Mills v. Florida Caribbean Distillers Verdict: $2,400,000 Pre-trial offer: $600,000 VAttorney: David Henry with assistance from Keith Carter

One of our biggest verdicts this year comes after a tragedy while working. A man named Jordan Mills endured significant injuries after falling through a skylight while insulating pipes. The accident left him with life-altering inju- ries.

It also left him with a defendant unwill- ing to pay for those injuries. David Hen- ry of our Winter Haven office worked as the lead attorney on this case, and discusses some of its specifics with us here.

23 Q: Can you describe the nature of the case? Who wronged whom, and was there anything interesting about the legal nature of the case?

David Henry: Jordan Mills, a 26-year-old commercial pipe in- sulator, was walking on the roof of the defendants’ distillery, when he fell through a skylight to the floor below.

He was on the roof in order to access a pipe — he wasn’t working on the roof or any structural aspect of it. Had he been working on the roof or skylight, he would not have been able to bring the claim, because an independent con- tractor cannot recover for injuries arising from the work he was asked to do if danger was part of that job.

Q: What was the nature of his injuries?

DH: He fell approximately 25 to 30 feet, suffering a closed- head injury and a fractured jaw. He didn’t lose teeth, but he will. He damaged ten teeth, which required root canals. He fractured his wrist, requiring open reduction and internal fix- ation. He also fractured his pelvis.

24 Q: How did you and the defense frame your arguments?

DH: The plaintiff’s theory of the case was that the skylight constituted a latent dangerous condition, because it was in- distinguishable from the rest of the metal roof — both the roof and the skylight were covered by distillery mold.

The defendant claimed Mr. Mills was comparatively negli- gent and alleged negligence on the part of Mr. Mills’ employ- er, Milco Quality Insulation, Inc., and the contractor in charge of the job, Citrus Maintenance & Welding.

Q: How was the verdict broken down?

DH: The verdict of $2.4 million was reduced by comparative negligence of the plaintiff and non-parties Milco and Citrus (the plaintiff and contractors were found partially at fault) to $1.7 million. Past medical expenses amounted to near- ly $475,000, future medical expenses are approximately $575,000, and lost wages totaled $116,000. Lost wages in the future were $60,000, and pain and suffering in the past and future combined for $1.2 million.

25 Q: How did you end up with such a notable outcome?

DH: Jordan was an excellent witness on his own behalf and his father Clarence Mills, owner of Milco, was also an out- standing witness with respect to the technical aspects of the job and was an excellent before and after witness.

Both Jordan and his father were able to convey the pro- found influence the injuries had on Jordan’s life. Jordan went through a long, strenuous, and slow recovery. He was a per- sonal trainer, and looks like an NFL running back. But even though he looks excellent physically, through expert testi- mony from Jordan and his dad, we were able to show that Jordan’s troubles, in spite of his appearance, will continue for the rest of his life.

Q: What was the most challenging thing about the case and why?

DH: Prevailing on the legal issue of a landowner’s non-liabili- ty to an independent contractor on the property. The defen- dant argued that [Jordan] being on the roof was integral to the job and part of the activity, and we convinced the court that was not the case. Legal arguments on a variety of issues took up part of every morning before the jury came in. We fought like hell on the legal issues.

26 Q: What is a memorable anecdote from the trial?

DH: Jordan’s ability to explain to the jury his road to recovery was compelling. He tells the story in a way that resonates. And the testimony of Terrance Lamb, who at the time was an employee of the defendant, captivated the jury. He saw Jor- dan fall through the skylight, and while others ran, he went to Jordan and embraced him, holding his bloody body. Mr. Lamb told Jordan that he was going to be fine, but in reality he thought he was going to die.

Q: What makes this case so important?

DH: The defense repeatedly tried to limit the right of recov- ery, and in this case attempted to apply the law beyond its intended application. They argued that they told Citrus of the presence of mold, the knowledge of the mold and the pres- ence of the skylight was imputed to Jordan. They relied on cases that hold if you tell a supervisor something, all employ- ees working for the supervisor are deemed to know. But the keyword here was “employee,” and Jordan was not a Citrus employee — the defense tried to stretch the application of the law.

Q: How did the client feel after the news of the verdict?

DH: He was delighted and relieved. It was a righteous case, that’s for sure.

Bryan Smith Attorney 05

Trentham v. Williams Verdict: $1,971,000 Pre-trial offer: $0 VAttorney: Bryan Smith with assistance from Jodi Black

This case involves a tragic medical mis- hap, where a seven-year-old received serious nose disfigurement after a doctor attempted to correct a medical condition. This is just one of the many cases in which our medical malpractice lawyers fight for patients whose med- ical professionals failed to live up to their duty to heal rather than harm.

Bryan Smith works in our Memphis office. He served as the lead attorney, receiving support from fellow attorney Jodi Black. Here he provides insight into the case.

29 Q: Can you describe the nature of the case? Who wronged whom, and did anything novel occur?

Bryan Smith: Our client underwent a neuro-radiological procedure to correct an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in his upper lip. The procedure was technically difficult and risky. It had to be done somewhat blindly by guiding a cath- eter through arteries in the patient’s leg, up to his face, and into his lip.

Once in the lip, the doctor injected medical grade alcohol through the catheter which acted like an acid — killing every- thing it contacted. All this was complicated by the fact that the patient was only seven years old, and the only way for the doctor to see where the alcohol went was to take a series of live x-rays, which left many blind spots.

The doctor missed the AVM and destroyed the blood supply to the client’s nose, causing significant disfigurement and de- formity.

Q: How did you end up with such a notable outcome?

BS: Hard work. The defendant did everything he could to avoid accountability. He misrepresented the facts, changed medical records, and had his lawyers throw up every legal roadblock they could think of to try and have the case dis- missed.

But we had excellent clients who endured years of litigation to get a just result, and an extremely dedicated, hard-work- ing, and experienced trial team that was able to present the case in a way the jury understood. Trying cases day in and day out made the difference.

30 Q: What was the biggest challenge in this case?

BS: The defendant hired one of the preeminent experts in the field to defend his actions. They relied on the impres- sive credentials of their expert to justify the bad outcome as merely a risk of the procedure that the parents knew about and accepted.

The medicine was extremely complex and had to be distilled down to its essence and taught to the jury in a way that they could do their job of determining if the doctor was negligent. Developing a teaching strategy to explain the procedure and what went wrong was the most challenging part of presenting this case.

Q: What was a great memory from trial?

BS: The most memorable and rewarding part of the trial for me was when many of the jurors went out of their way after the verdict to compliment our trial team on the impressive and professional way they conducted themselves in court.

Reputation means everything, and it is truly rewarding to get such wonderful feedback from jurors who decide these cases.

31 Q: Why does this case matter?

BS: Doctors and nurses have a huge responsibility. Their ac- tions can literally save or destroy the lives of their patients and their families. But, the healthcare industry does a poor job policing itself. Most of the harm is done by a handful of bad professionals. People know who the bad doctors are, but refuse to take action.

Instead of admitting fault and making changes to improve the quality of care for patients, we see repeated cover-ups and abuses like fraudulent medical records. Many times, lawsuits are the only way families get answers about what happened to their loved ones.

Cases like this one level the playing field between patients and large healthcare corporations, ensure transparency and accountability for negligent healthcare providers, and result in real improvements to the quality of healthcare on a local level.

Q: How did the client feel after the verdict?

BS: The client was thrilled that his story was told and the doc- tor was held accountable for all the harm he caused.
