Ed Lomena - Zero Property Damage to a Million Dollar Verdict

Colorado Trial Lawyer Connection

Every case has facts that weaken a client’s position. But by showing their hand to the jury early on, a lawyer can build trust and credibility as part of a winning strategy.

In this episode of Colorado Trial Lawyer Connection, Ed Lomena joins Keith Fuicelli to discuss a recent verdict on a rear-end collision case involving a likable client whose case had significant problems related to treatment and property damage. Ed explains how he was able to work around these issues and turn a $5,000 insurance offer into a $980,000 verdict in the conservative venue of Colorado Springs.
