Peter Ticktin and Jamie A. Sasson of the Ticktin Law Group’s Deerfield Beach office are preparing for trial against Arkansas-based Walmart Stores Inc., the city of Hallandale Beach, Broward County and the Broward County Sheriff’s Office, accused of the wrongful death of a shoplifter.

The pair represent Christina Sam Niego, the ex-wife of 32-year-old Eduardo Prieto Jr., who stole children’s DVDs from a Walmart store in Hallandale Beach and was subsequently shot 26 times by police. According to the plaintiff, Walmart staff exaggerated reports of aggressive behavior and a “weapon.”
