HM&B Obtains Damages for 16% of High-Profile Opposing Counsel’s Requested Verdict

John Doe v. Dentists (In the Superior Court of the U.S. Virgin Islands, District of St. Croix)

Plaintiff alleged that their dentist pulled the wrong tooth. The claim alleged medical malpractice and requested damages for pain and suffering, loss of income, and medical expenses. Plaintiff’s counsel requested a whopping $500,000 in damages. After four (4) days of trial, the jury agreed that Plaintiff had not presented evidence to support a high claim of damages, and awarded $82,000 to the Plaintiff instead. Partner Chivonne Thomas and her senior associate Tracy Myers were the trial lawyers from the HM&B team, with the priceless support of their paralegal, Jen Leon, and legal assistant, Adrianna Consalvo.
