Proven verdicts and settlements won by Eisenberg Winkler Jeck Schwartz Schoenhaus & Sherry, P.C.
A Philadelphia jury awarded roughly $976.5 million, including $800 million in punitive damages, after the rip-stitch seat belt in Francis Amagasu's 1992 Mitsubishi 3000GT tore during a rollover and left him quadriplegic. Daniel Sherry Jr., Nancy Winkler, and Jessica Colliver tried the case for the firm then known as Eisenberg, Rothweiler, Winkler, Eisenberg & Jeck, with co-counsel Kyle Farrar and Wes Ball of Houston's Kaster Lynch Farrar & Ball. On December 22, 2025 the Pennsylvania Superior Court vacated the judgment, which had grown to over $1 billion with delay damages, and ordered a new trial over the jury instructions. The retrial had not yet taken place as of this writing.
A Philadelphia jury found that a defectively designed seat belt in a 1999 Acura Integra left driver Carlos Martinez a quadriplegic after a rollover on Interstate 70 near Baltimore, and awarded him and his wife $55,325,714. Stewart J. Eisenberg and Daniel J. Sherry Jr., then of Eisenberg, Rothweiler, Winkler, Eisenberg & Jeck (now Eisenberg Winkler Jeck Schwartz Schoenhaus & Sherry), tried the case against Honda. The trial court denied Honda's post-trial motions and entered judgment on the full verdict plus $2,066,002 in delay damages, a molded judgment of $57,391,716. Honda appealed, arguing that a Pennsylvania Supreme Court decision handed down while its post-trial motion was pending had rewritten the state's products liability standard. On April 19, 2017, the Pennsylvania Superior Court rejected every argument Honda raised and affirmed.
A Philadelphia jury awarded $24.8 million to Sean Kalinowski, a roofer who suffered a traumatic brain injury and partial blindness after falling more than 20 feet through an unguarded skylight at an Aston, Pennsylvania auto body shop in June 2016. The jury found the tenant, ABRA Auto Body & Glass, 60 percent at fault, the building's owner, 2626 Market LLC, 30 percent at fault, and Kalinowski 10 percent contributorily negligent. A post-trial order applying Pennsylvania's joint and several liability rule and a pre-verdict high-low agreement directed ABRA to pay $19.36 million and 2626 Market to pay $3 million, a combined $22.36 million. ABRA's carrier paid only part of that amount and the defendants filed an appeal despite having waived that right, and no public record confirms how the dispute was finally resolved.
