Bob McLaughlin, Emily Bramer and Nikki Baker received a plaintiff's verdict in a pro bono case last week. The case involved a lawsuit against one of four individuals responsible for beating up the plaintiff and breaking his jaw. The defendant refused to settle, arguing that he did not participate in the beating. The verdict for the plaintiff was $95,000, $75,000 compensatory damages and $20,000 punitive damages, after a two-day trial.
