Rodriguez v. Doe - $36.12 Million Arbitration Verdict - Alameda County, California
September 2011
Rodriguez v. Doe was an Alameda County arbitration verdict in the amount of $36.12 million. The defendant is called "Doe" because Gary A. Dordick entered into a very favorable settlement agreement post-verdict that provided confidentiality to the defendant in exchange for payment to Mr. Dordick's client without delay.
The Rodriguez case arose out of a big-rig truck versus automobile collision on the I-580 freeway. The plaintiffs stopped their vehicle on the side of the freeway. The defendant big-rig truck claimed the vehicle was cut off by a motorcycle causing him to swerve into the rear of the plaintiff's parked vehicle, but the truth was proven at trial.
Our client, Rodriguez, suffered injuries rending him paraplegic.
