About Gabriel Hawkins
Gabriel Hawkins joined CohenMalad LLP in 2007 after graduating with honors from Indiana University Maurer School of Law and completing a judicial clerkship with the Indiana Court of Appeals. Gabriel focuses his practice on complex litigation, personal injury, business litigation, and appellate litigation. He has served as lead trial counsel in cases in Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia, Florida, Texas, and Oregon, as well as lead counsel on numerous matters before the Indiana Court of Appeals, Indiana Supreme Court, and several federal circuits. Gabriel is particularly proud of his work in Bixby, et al. v. KBR, Inc., a complex toxic tort case in which American and British soldiers were exposed to a deadly carcinogen, resulting in an $85.2 million jury verdict.
Proven verdicts and settlements
A federal jury in Portland awarded $85 million to 12 Oregon Army National Guard soldiers after finding that contractor KBR knowingly exposed them to a carcinogenic chemical at an Iraqi water treatment plant and then lied about the danger.
A truck driver lost his right leg below the knee in 2015 after a nurse at Methodist Hospital in Gary placed an IV in his foot without a doctor's order and he was discharged days later. A Lake County jury returned $11 million in November 2022, and the trial court reduced it to the $1.25 million statutory cap under the Indiana Medical Malpractice Act. After the Court of Appeals ordered a new trial, the Indiana Supreme Court affirmed the verdict in June 2025.
