Many Plaintiff lawyers are afraid of premises cases. They think they don’t pay. They think it’s an uphill battle. It’s time to change that narrative. It’s false. Premises cases can be some of the most valuable and satisfying cases you handle. And the insurance companies know it.

This workshop is centered around a $2,300,000.00 million dollar slip n fall verdict involving a knee injury to a Plaintiff in her 60’s. Top offer before trial was $65,000.00. The verdict was almost entirely for non-economic damages except for $63,000 in future medical.

Come with your current premises cases in mind. We will meet two times in advance of the workshop to get to know one another and to start laying the groundwork for the workshop.

A strong premises case starts at the beginning. Often what the corporate/company defendant does or doesn’t do at the outset is pivotal. And what you do to uncover their actions and inactions is even more pivotal. We will dive into what to look for, what documents to obtain, and what to do to put pressure on the Defense and create risk-thereby increasing the value of your case tenfold.

We will discuss cross-examination and the art of obtaining concessions during deposition and at trial. This will include depositions, direct, and cross of defendant employees, managers, and safety experts and engineers. We will go over types of written discovery that must be sent in every case.

Finally, we will get into framing the case liability and damages side for trial, linking and weaving all aspects of the trial together from mini opening to closing argument. Taking a premises case from a 5 figure offer to a multi-million-dollar verdict.

I look forward to learning from and collaborating with each of you!!
