$600,000 Settlement in Products' Liability Case for Loss of Sense of Smell
Jury Verdicts Research reported earlier this month on a $600,000 settlement a Philadelpia lawyer obtained on behalf of a truck driver whose primary injury was the loss of his sense of smell. The truck driver claimed a design defect in a milk truck because it failed to provide a grab handle on the rear driver's side of the truck.
Not to make light of this gentleman's injuries, but I have an awful sense of smell which, generally, I think comes in handy. I think the truck driver's lawyer got him an excellent verdict for a design defect products' liability case for this injury when liability was in dispute.
