2. here's a profile of the plaintiff's lawyer |
|
From 2000, dealing with his involvement in the Christian Curry case. Benedict Morelli Feels Your PainThis is what Benedict P. Morelli does, pridefully and profitably: He connects with a jury in a way that is the envy of other plaintiffs' lawyers. Watching him orate is like watching a Bensonhurst production of Inherit the Wind -- grand gestures, flailing, a stream of tears. So hardwired is he into the heartbeat of a jury that in the past twenty years, he has lost his way with jurors only twice, he claims, and both times had the verdict reversed on appeal. After leaving his law partner of twenty years in 1998, he even hired a publicist to let the world know about his record. "You can't beat me by trying to exhaust me," vows Morelli, back at his office. "That's why I work out. That's why I have the energy of a 30-year-old."
But somewhere along the line, while he was scoring the largest verdicts in legal history for blindness in one eye ($2.25 million), multiple fractures ($11.1 million), and the death of a pregnant woman ($41 million), Benedict Morelli made the decision to rise out of the personal-injury ghetto. Now he wants a shot at social-justice cases, white-collar-scuzzball cases, employee-discrimination cases -- change-the-world cases. He believes he's earned it.
