$104 million verdict one of the top verdicts in 2011

Summary: I’m proud to announce that the $104 million verdict won by Ed Bernstein and Associates was one of the top 10 verdicts in the United States for 2011 according to Lawyers USA.

As you may recall, jurors awarded our client Michael Washington $104 million against drug companies Teva Parenteral Medicines Inc. and Baxter Healthcare Corp for their negligence and defective design of their vials. Mr. Washington is one of the patients who contracted Hepatitis C from the Endoscopy Center of Southern Nevada.

This Week on the Ed Bernstein Show

Summary: Join me this week on the Ed Bernstein show when I interview Alan Young. Alan is the CEO of Armor Concepts LLC and perhaps unlike any security expert you have met before. Alan never intended to work in security but when homes he was renovating were continually burglarized after having their doors kicked-in; he was forced to learn a quick lesson. He and his brother invented Door Jamb Armor, as a way of protecting their investments.

On the show we speak about how to secure your home from break ins, why alarms are not always the best, and about his inexpensive Door Jamb Armor that anyone can install on their doors. We also show a video of a test of his product conducted by a news show in Memphis.

The show airs this Sunday at 3:30pm on KSNV/NBC.
