Anastopoulo Law Firm’s $5 Million Jury Verdict For Broken Leg in Car Crash Upheld By SC Appellate Court

Press Release

The South Carolina Court of Appeals has upheld a $5 million dollar jury verdict, holding the trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying the Defendant’s motions for a new trial. Daisy Frederick is represented by Poulin | Willey | Anastopoulo (D.B.A. Anastopoulo Law Firm), whose litigation headquarters are in Charleston. 

The Court of Appeals upheld the jury award of $5 million as not unreasonable given the evidence of damages presented at the trial court level. The plaintiff, 27-year-old Daisy Frederick, of Cheraw, SC suffered a broken leg, and laceration wounds on her arm after a pickup truck crossed the median hitting her head-on.

Eric Poulin, the lawyer representing Ms. Frederick and partner at Poulin | Willey | Anastopoulo said, “sometimes winning at trial is just the first battle. We never stop fighting for our clients until justice is done.  We are pleased that the Court of Appeals agreed with the jury and upheld the verdict in this case. Ms. Frederick has been through a lot and I’m glad that our team could play even a small role in helping her get the closure she deserves.”

Poulin | Willey | Anastopoulo, headquartered in Charleston, also has offices in North Charleston, Columbia, Florence, Lexington, Myrtle Beach, and Greenville, as well as offices in North Carolina.
