Proven verdicts and settlements

$1 million

A New Jersey jury awarded $6,000,000 after finding that a colorectal surgeon's failure to remove a polyp let a patient's colon cancer go undetected until it had spread to his liver. Benjamin Serico died of the cancer while the case was pending, and his wife Lucia Serico carried it to trial as executrix of his estate. While the jury was deliberating, the parties struck a high-low agreement that guaranteed the family a minimum recovery and capped the surgeon's total exposure at $1,000,000. Because the verdict exceeded that ceiling, judgment entered at $1,000,000. Both the New Jersey Appellate Division and the New Jersey Supreme Court held that the agreement controlled and that no attorney's fees could be added on top of it.
