Trial experience is one of the most important factors when choosing a personal injury attorney, especially for catastrophic injury cases where insurance companies are highly motivated to minimize payouts. Ask prospective lawyers how many jury trials they've conducted, what types of injuries were involved, and what the outcomes were. An attorney who has actually tried high-stakes severe injury cases before juries and won carries credibility that settlement-focused lawyers lack. Michael Kane has secured multiple million-dollar jury verdicts, including a $6 million verdict against a commercial bus company, a $2.45 million verdict against a private ambulance company, and a $2.7 million verdict in an automobile collision case. In 2020 and 2021, his trial teams won jury verdicts totaling over $6.5 million. In 2022, we recovered over $21 million for wrongful death and catastrophic injury trucking cases. Our courtroom experience is what makes insurance companies take us seriously.
