Wakole v. Barber, 283 Va. 488, 722 S.E.2d 238 (Virginia Supreme Court 2012)

Juli Porto, with co-counsel, secured a key appellate victory for our client in a personal injury case arising from an automobile accident. The Supreme Court of Virginia affirmed that a plaintiff may itemize non-economic damages, such as pain, suffering, and inconvenience, in closing arguments and present a fixed dollar amount for each component, provided the totals are supported by evidence and not framed as a per diem formula.
