The Firm
$5,858,000 Verdict for Elderly Pedestrian in San Mateo
Skip Walker tried the case of Yao v. Thrasher to a multi-million dollar verdict on October 27. The offer when Skip was first brought into the case was $0. Thereafter, it was raised to $250,000 then $500,000, and then $1,000,000 while the jury was out. Liability was found to rest half with defendant driver, and half with the pedestrian, who was a recent arrival from China. The magazine VERDICT SERVICES made this case “Verdict of the Week.”


$6,000,000 Medical Malpractice Settlement
On the eve of trial, Tim Hamilton and Skip Walker settled the case of Weatherspoon v.
