Since 2000, John Gomez has obtained over $130 million in compensation for his clients with 17 awards exceeding $1 million. He has obtained those verdicts and settlements in cases involving defective products, worker safety, government liability, employment practices, business cases and serious personal injury and wrongful death. Two recent jury verdicts demonstrate the types of extraordinary results he delivers at trial for his clients. In 2005, he obtained a record $1.6 million jury verdict against a crematorium for mishandling the remains of his clients' mother. While there have been hundreds of lawsuits involving mishandling of remains, that verdict is the largest in history for a similar individual case. Click here for news accounts of that verdict. In March 2006, John and Maria Palmieri obtained a record $106 million verdict against the County of San Diego and Kristin Rossum in a case arising out of the "American Beauty" murder case. The case received local, national, and international coverage.

The Gomez Law Firm works hard on your side to obtain those kinds of extraordinary results for every one of our clients.
