JASON EDWARDS OBTAINS DEFENSE VERDICT IN MONTGOMERY COUNTY

January 2024

Jason Edwards obtained a defense verdict following an arbitration in Montgomery County. The case arose from a motor vehicle accident on November 30, 2020. The Plaintiff in the case alleged severe and permanent injuries to her neck, arm, wrist, and back following an accident in which her vehicle was struck by Jason’s client who failed to stop at a red light which controlled the intersection. Jason used Plaintiff’s own medical records and admissions during discovery to effectively cross examine the Plaintiff during the arbitration and argued that her injuries did not amount to a serious bodily injury. The arbitration panel returned a verdict in favor of Jason’s client and found that no serious injury requiring compensation had occurred. Judgment has been entered against the Plaintiff in favor of Jason’s client, and no appeals have been filed.

Joe Walsh Obtains Defense Verdict in Bucks County

October 2020

We are very excited to announce that the Honorable Joseph P Walsh recently achieved a directed verdict in favor of his client following jury selection in the Court of Common Pleas of Bucks County. This was one of the first jury trials held in Bucks County following the courthouse re-opening after closing due to COVID-19. Joe successfully argued that his client, a snow removal contractor, had no liability to a plaintiff who claimed to have slipped and fallen in a parking lot. Through effective cross examination and impeachment, the Plaintiff admitted that our client had done its job properly and within the applicable standard of care at all times. At the conclusion of the evidence, the trial judge granted Joe’s motion for a directed verdict, finding that the jury could not find that the client was negligent on the evidence presented during trial.
