John Doe, M.D. v. John Doe Manufacturing Co. In this New York case, Mr. Blamer sued and obtained a sizeable settlement against a manufacturer for his client when exercise equipment malfunctioned causing the victim, a medical doctor, to severely injure his back resulting in multiple surgeries.
Jane Doe v. John Doe Premises Owner: In this Wayne County case, the jury awarded what is believed to be the largest verdict of its time in a premises liability award for a fall on ice in the employer’s parking lot. Over 15 doctors testified in the case regarding causation and treatment for a condition that was not diagnosed until 2 years after the fall.
Estate of Jane Doe v John Doe Bar, et. al. In this Dram Shop/Liquor Liability Trial, the jury awarded a very sizeable award against the liquor establishment who served a patron to the point of intoxication which the jury found led directly to a bar fight during which the victim suffered a heart attack and died.
Mr. Blamer, with Cummings, McClorey, Davis, & Acho, P.L.C., has represented hundreds of victims over the years in these types and other similar cases with injuries ranging from death to severe brain damage, to orthopedic injuries requiring multiple surgeries to severe scarring just to name a few with tremendous success. His drive to educate himself so he can effectively cross-examine the experts hired by his opponents is a key element to his success whether it is learning to fly so he can effectively take on the FAA in a plane crash, or employ his skills as an experienced scuba diver in products liability actions against dive equipment manufacturers for their defective equipment. His clients truly appreciate his understanding, communication and skills in dealing with their particular injuries and loss.
