Guillot v. DaimlerChrysler
Apr 10, 2008OUTCOME: $5,080,000 jury verdict
The Guillots owned a defective Jeep Grand Cherokee. Getting into the Jeep on the way to the hospital for the birth of their child, the defect caused the Jeep to slip into reverse, causing devastating i ... njuries to a pregnant Mrs. Guillot. The Guillots finally made it to their hospital, where their child was born alive but tragically died 17 days later from the injuries suffered. Bruce Kingsdorf, along with lawyers from Lieff Cabraser and the Law Offices of Van Robichaux, guided the Guillots through the trial against Chrysler, which resulted in a $5,080,000 jury verdict in their favor, one of the largest of its kind in St. Bernard Parish history.
