Poast new message in this thread
Date: March 14th, 2025 2:21 PM Author: calishitlawguru (Self Made UHNW) Just kidding. They offered 30 million before the verdict and we turned it DOWN. Just got the verdict and it was 50 million. After interest it will be 60 million. 27 million in attorneys fees and my firm's cut is 13.5 million. I'm going to make like 35-40 million this year lol. Nick is such an animal.

This is the case we got them sanctioned $7,400 for discovery abuses for refusing to produce the video.
$50 million verdict is the largest ever civil negligence verdict against Starbucks to my knowledge. I don’t know if there was even a $10 million before. |

Date: March 14th, 2025 3:11 PM Author: disco fries (his own flesh as well as all space was still a cage) It was probably pretty painful. I feel like my soul dies a little more each day. You know the other thing that is absolutely dreadful about being a defense lawyer? You're completely out on an island. No defense lawyer I know will return email or phone calls. The only lawyers I can even shoot the shit with are plaintiff's lawyers. Not kidding. Defense lawyers are just shells of humans they once were. Completely transmogrified into troglodyte slaves to corporate insurers that are all staffed up with bitchy middle-aged women who just LOVE their power to puppet fat sad lawyer former-men-now-marionettes around all day. |

Date: March 14th, 2025 7:11 PM Author: chandler (retired) A spokesperson for Starbucks called the award "excessive" and said the company would appeal.
"We sympathize with Mr. Garcia, but we disagree with the jury's decision that we were at fault for this incident and believe the damages awarded to be excessive," said Starbucks Director of Corporate Communications Jaci Anderson in an email. "We plan to appeal. We have always been committed to the highest safety standards in our stores, including the handling of hot drinks.”
Upon hearing that statement, Rowley replied: "They’re a bunch of idiots. They don’t have a chance in hell at getting this verdict reduced." |
