Million Dollar Breakdown: $54 Million Verdict After Defense Blamed Alcohol
with Jonathan Brozyna
In this Million Dollar Breakdown, Morgan & Morgan attorney Jonathan Brozyna explains how they secured a $54 million jury verdict in a wrongful death case involving a commercial truck crossing the center line and causing a fatal crash. He walks through the team’s trial strategy, including how black-box data disproved a claimed brake failure, how they confronted difficult facts — such as alcohol in the decedent’s system — without minimizing them, and how objective evidence and expert testimony helped the jury separate moral judgment from legal causation. The discussion focuses on credibility, confronting tough evidence directly, and using science and reconstruction to clarify responsibility for the jury.
