The Firm’s attorneys obtained a $2.1 million settlement for our client, a Clay County, Missouri homeowner, who dug into an underground 7,200-volt power line that had not been marked by a locating and marking company. Our client suffered electrical shock injuries, including a fractured neck, permanent numbness in his hands and feet, permanent back pain, personality and psychological changes, cognitive impairment, memory loss and other severe injuries. Because many of these injuries were subjective in nature, we conducted a “mock trial” of the case before three different jury panels and reported the results to counsel for the defense. The case settled the following week.
