Case Details:
Three-time Outstanding Trial Lawyer Award recipient Craig McClellan reveals how he held a manufacturer liable for making a vehicle that is “too dangerous for the average consumer without warnings and instruction.” Air Force veteran Donald Fresh was killed after his coworker failed to maintain control of her Porsche Turbo 930, which was designed to operate more like a race car and did not respond well to deceleration or braking while executing a turn. The brake bent under the force of her foot due to a laceration defect, causing the brake pedal to clamp down on the accelerator. A San Diego jury returned a verdict of $2,500,000 and assigned 100% of the blame for Donald’s death on Porsche for not posting warnings about the car’s foreseeable risk of hazard to users and negligence in addressing the car’s defective brakes and handling.
