Legal Experience Verdicts and Settlements

Laird & Cummings, P.C. has represented clients in verdicts and settlements that are significant based on the nature of the case, the level of financial compensation awarded or the beneficial operational changes made by defendants as a result of the litigation. The following outlines some of our experience.
  • The family of an infant who was catastrophically injured by a medical worker retained the firm to represent them. As a result of the facts presented in the case, the family received what was the largest single patient medical malpractice verdict for actual damages in Tarrant County history, and the largest verdict for loss of parent-child relationship damages in Texas history at that time.
  • The family of a newborn who was a victim of medical neglect during delivery retained the firm to represent them. Because of the circumstances involved, the family received one of the largest single patient medical malpractice settlements for actual damages in Dallas County history.
  • Due to insufficient safety procedures, improper training and negligence by a medical worker, a patient died when cleaning fluid was injected during dialysis. In this case the family of the victim received the largest malpractice verdict in Lamar County history.
  • A former City of Dallas employee alleged wrongful termination against the city and retained the firm. The case marked the first time the City of Dallas was sued successfully outside of Dallas, and the judgment resulted in the largest amount of financial sanctions ever upheld on appeal in Texas history.

We believe it is important that individuals and businesses continue to have full and unimpeded access to the courts and the justice system to resolve disputes and seek restitution for wrongful acts. The laws governing these cases are a foundation of our society, helping assure a level of fair commerce, public health and safety that should be expected for every citizen.

The facts and results of each case will vary, and no particular result can be guaranteed.
