In 2013 a 16-year-old fell through a torn trampoline at Cosmic Jump, an indoor trampoline park in Houston, fractured his skull and suffered a traumatic brain injury. After a two-week trial in February 2016, a Harris County jury found the park grossly negligent and awarded $5.485 million in compensatory damages and $6 million in punitive damages. His lawyers believed it was the largest verdict in the country against a commercial trampoline park.
Bexar County agreed to pay $5 million to resolve a federal civil-rights suit after sheriff's deputies fatally shot 6-year-old Kameron Prescott inside his family's home during a 2017 manhunt, with Tom Crosley representing the boy's father.
A Bexar County jury valued Daniel Irwin's crash injuries at nearly $499,000, and in 2021 the Texas Supreme Court let his policy recovery and a $45,540 attorney-fee award against Allstate stand, confirming that Texas drivers can sue their own underinsured-motorist carrier by declaratory judgment.
Crosley Law won a $223,379 jury verdict against the at-fault driver who caused a 2016 San Antonio crash and made the client's own insurer, Allstate, cover his attorney's fees, an award the appeals court left almost entirely in place.
