On September 10, Daily Business Review and VerdictSearch held the inaugural Verdicts Hall of Fame reception and dinner at the Rusty Pelican in Key Biscayne. The event was a celebration of the law firms selected for induction into the Verdicts Hall of Fame, which was created this year.
One of the firms being celebrated during the event was Colson Hicks Eidson. Stephen Wolkoff and Julie Wolkoff v. Sunshine Storage, Inc., a lawsuit handled by Colson Hicks Eidson’s Deborah J. Gander, was enshrined in the Hall of Fame, because the verdict handed down in the case was one of the top five premises liability verdicts in Florida from 2011-13.
What Is Premises Liability?
