"Top Verdicts 2005: Plaintiff Power"

This morning's Daily Journal reports on the top jury verdicts in California in 2005, including a piece on my firm’s Wal-Mart verdict. The story quotes my colleague, Jessica Grant:

The jury deliberated for three days and reached a verdict Dec. 22, ordering Wal-Mart to pay $57 million in compensatory damages and $115 million in punitive damages. "I hope my next case goes that well," Grant said.

Considering how hard-working and dedicated Jessica is, I have no doubt that it will. The Daily Journal’s report also includes interesting summaries of the other top verdicts of 2005. (Unfortunately, the Daily Journal’s website does not provide pass-through links to specific articles, even for paid subscribers.)
