This is the Law Journal’s second annual magazine devoted to ranking the top personal injury recoveries of the year.
We combed the verdicts and settlements reported in our weekly Suits & Deals column throughout 2014 to find the highest and second-highest awards in six categories: automobile injury, medical malpractice, premises liability, products liability, public liability and workplace injury. They are featured in these pages, along with short profiles of the plaintiffs lawyers who achieved them and, in some instances, brief descriptions of other cases of note those lawyers were involved in last year.
