Tiffany Steward Obtains Defense Verdict in Admitted Liability Case in Los Angeles County

On September 11, 2019, Tiffany Steward successfully concluded a personal injury jury trial in Pomona, CA.  The plaintiff claimed to have sustained significant injuries as the result of a rear-end motor vehicle accident that occurred on June 14, 2016 in Los Angeles County.  The defense admitted liability for the rear-end accident but disputed causation of injuries.  The plaintiff had incurred in excess of $100,000 in lien based treatment but at the start of trial the plaintiff waived special damages in an attempt to win favor from the jury.  After a one week trial, the jury returned a unanimous verdict finding that the defendant’s negligence was not a substantial factor in causing the plaintiff’s claimed injuries and treatment.
