Proven verdicts and settlements won by Cooney & Conway
A Madison County jury awarded James Hutcheson $34.1 million after he developed mesothelioma from asbestos exposure during contract work at Shell Oil's Wood River, Illinois refinery in the 1950s and 1960s.
Chicago agreed to pay $20 million to the families of Fausto Manzera and Andrew Cazares, two men killed in 2009 when off-duty detective Joseph Frugoli struck their disabled vehicle on the Dan Ryan Expressway with a blood-alcohol level more than four times the legal limit, after trial evidence exposed the department's years-long failure to discipline Frugoli for prior suspected drunk driving.
A Delaware jury returned a unanimous $9 million verdict on July 23, 2025, in the first case ever tried over asbestos-contaminated shotgun shells, holding DuPont and Remington's successor liable for the mesothelioma death of Eugene Schoepke, an 84-year-old Illinois farmer and lifelong hunter.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Each case is unique and depends on its own facts.
