Pomerantz v. Rapid Plumbing & Mechanical Inc.
Trial
08/13/25 – 08/15/25
Summary
A Florida state court jury delivered a $405.4K verdict on August 15th to a woman alleging she suffered a concussion and injuries to her neck and back after being struck by a heavy plumbing truck that blew through a righthand-only turn lane.
The Palm Beach County jury awarded plaintiff Sue Pomerantz $405,412 following a three-day trial. Pomerantz claimed the collision left her with debilitating injuries resulting in chronic pain that increasingly invasive medical treatments have failed to resolve, however the defense, in addition to disputing liability for the underlying crash, argued her symptoms stemmed from a variety of pre-existing conditions.
