Houston lawyer Mark T. Murray credits a nearly $11 million win in a gut-wrenching personal-injury suit to the strength of his client’s wife, Megan. Her husband, Brady Foret, who worked as a derrick man for an energy company, suffered multiple injuries in 2009 after a rig mast collapsed and he fell eight floors.
On Aug. 26, Harris County 80th District Judge Larry Weiman signed a judgment ordering Stewart & Stevenson, the company that had refurbished the rig mast before it collapsed, to pay Foret $10,817,459: $10,702,459 in medical expenses, damages for his injuries, past and future lost earnings, and past and future physical pain and mental anguish, plus $115,000 in interest.
