Robert W. Johnson & Associates is proud to announce that the case “Naugle v. Philip Morris USA, Inc.”, in which RWJA provided expert witness testimony on behalf of the plaintiff, was ranked 7th in the Top 100 Verdicts of 2009, as analyzed by Verdict Search (an ALM Publication).
“Providing clear, understandable financial testimony, that enables the jury to determine a just resolution for a case, is always a challenge,” said Robert W. Johnson. “We were proud to participate in this landmark case and to provide our assistance to the lead plaintiff’s attorney, Todd R. McPharlin, Kelley Uustal, PLC., of Fort Lauderdale, FL.”
