THIS IS INCONCEIVABLE!
The jury has decided that you're entitled to a verdict in your favor.
The jury has decided that your doctor was careless.
The jury has decided that his carelessness was a cause of your injuries. That means that the jury has determined that you are more likely right than wrong that what you are claiming is true.
Now it's time for the jury to decide how much money you are to receive.
The first question they must answer is how much money you get for the pain and the suffering you endured from the time of the wrongdoing until the time of trial. That is typically about two to three years here in New York.
The jury decides you're entitled to receive $5 million for your past pain and suffering. Then, they must answer the next question...
"How much money are you to receive for your FUTURE pain and suffering?"
The jury inexplicably gives you NOTHING!
ZERO!
Not a penny!
And you sit there scratching your head wondering what the heck is going on? How could this happen? How could the jury not realize you have permanent injuries?
All your witnesses and medical experts confirmed you have permanent injuries. They all confirmed you are permanently disabled and disfigured.
How could the jury recognize that your injuries were severe and give you substantial money for that, but give you absolutely nothing for the future?
It makes no sense...
Or does it?
