Hired after entry of a $750,000.00 jury verdict against a Missouri lawyer, Susan Dimond and Rick Wuestling filed post-trial motions to either reverse the verdict or grant a new trial. The trial court agreed with Susan and Rick’s motions and entered an Order reversing the verdict or in the alternative granting a new trial. Plaintiff appealed. On July 23, 2024, the Court of Appeals for the Eastern District of Missouri handed down its Opinion affirming the trial court’s Order as to Susan and Rick’s client. The case is Dannenhauer, et al. v. Briscoe, et al., Case No. ED111979.
Using their combined experience of sixty-three years defending lawyers in legal malpractice cases both in trial and appellate courts, Susan and Rick’s team jumped into the fray to produce quality work and achieved an excellent outcome for their client.
