David Gould, with the assistance of his mentor Joseph Fegan, successfully defended a damages-only traumatic brain injury (TBI) case in the Supreme Court Suffolk County before Judge George Nolan. Christine Cirola v. Karen Johnson, Index No.: 617768-21. A total of 11 witnesses were called over a span of two weeks. The plaintiff''s attorney argued that his client sustained "a mild TBI" as a result of the accident and he requested that the jury award his client $1,000,000 in compensation.
Representing a national self-storage company in a Philadelphia lawsuit, Russo & Gould''s Chuck Stokes forced a Plaintiff to withdraw her claims against the client, and obtained court approval of the dismissal of the client just minutes before the jury panel was brought into the courtroom.
