Verdict Affirms Plaintiff’s Faith in Jury System
John Doe is a proud and poised African-American engineer and entrepreneur. A head-on crash fractured his right knee and knocked him unconscious. Although Mr. Doe conscientiously
rehabilitated his knee and soon returned to work he worried about future surgery and felt he had lost business opportunities for his new firm. Mr. Doe was willing to accept $400,000 in compensation, but the defense insurance company refused. They argued Mr. Doe never would have gotten the business for his new firm and hired Dr. Melvin Greer from the University of Florida Medical School who testified that Mr. Doe had a zero percent impairment rating. The jury agreed with Pajcic & Pajcic and Mr. Doe and returned a verdict for over $400,000. Mr. Doe has successfully invested some of that money in his new firm which is now thriving.
