  • Defense-Turned-Plaintiff’s Lawyer Lands a Record Verdict in Somerset County, with Doug Olcott

    Defense-Turned-Plaintiff’s Lawyer Lands a Record Verdict in Somerset County, with Doug Olcott
    Oct 23 2025
    Doug Olcott believes his 15 years as a defense attorney gives him a “leg up” representing plaintiffs. It did in his case against a snow tubing park, where his client suffered a catastrophic injury. “I think I have a better understanding as to what the defendants are going to do and then being able to anticipate how they're going to approach a game because, quite frankly, in my 35 years doing this, not a lot has changed on the defense bar side,” he tells host Brendan Lupetin. In this case breakdown, Doug explains how he overcame a signed waiver, exposed defense contradictions, and challenged an expert witness who said his client “lacked common sense.” The result: a $693,000 verdict, Somerset County's largest in at least 20 years: Learn More and Connect☑️ Doug Olcott | LinkedIn☑️ Edgar Snyder & Associates on LinkedIn | Facebook | YouTube☑️ Brendan Lupetin | LinkedIn☑️ Lupetin & Unatin, LLC☑️ Connect: Facebook | LinkedIn | YouTube☑️ Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTubeEpisode PreviewDoug’s client was attending a children's birthday party at Hidden Valley's snow tubing park when her tube accelerated down the hill and launched off the back of a runout embankment.She suffered a T12 burst fracture requiring surgical placement of two rods across five levels of her thoracic spine, along with a pelvic fracture and other lesser fractures.After the court granted summary judgment on negligence claims based on a signed waiver, the case proceeded to trial on recklessness only—a significantly higher burden requiring proof of intentional or reckless disregard for known risks.Doug and co-counsel Jerry Hutton proved recklessness by establishing three critical failures: no workers stationed at the bottom to stop tubes, no deceleration mats deployed, and no barrier to prevent riders from going over the embankment.The defense's own policies and procedures contradicted their trial testimony—interrogatory answers identified specific safety protocols that witnesses couldn't verify had been followed on the day of the...

  • Father-Son Team Vault Over the Case Tipping Point, with John and JJ Gismondi

    Father-Son Team Vault Over the Case Tipping Point, with John and JJ Gismondi
    Oct 9 2025
    John Gismondi has never said to an associate, “You’re just going to work as my caddy for a few years, and then we're going to start to give you your own cases.” That goes for his son JJ. Just four months after JJ passed the bar, he joined his father in representing a 60-year-old woman who suffered a ruptured aneurysm due to a missed diagnosis. In this case breakdown with host Brendan Lupetin, the father-son team reveal how they faced a critical ruling that prevented an ex-defendant’s testimony from being read in – “the tipping point,” as John describes it. “It kept JJ and me up until literally two o'clock.” Tune in to hear how they made it over the tipping point to secure a verdict split equally between the wife's pain and suffering and the husband's loss of consortium.Learn More and Connect☑️ John Gismondi | LinkedIn☑️ JJ Gismondi | LinkedIn☑️ The Law Offices of Gismondi & Associates on LinkedIn | Facebook | YouTube☑️ Brendan Lupetin | LinkedIn☑️ Lupetin & Unatin, LLC☑️ Connect: Facebook | LinkedIn | YouTube☑️ Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTubeEpisode PreviewThe case involved a 60-year-old woman whose abdominal aortic aneurysm was missed by a radiologist and eventually ruptured.The case was tried in Mifflin County, where court personnel informed them that "this was only the second civil trial of any type that had gone to a jury in 12 years."The crisis day defendants who delayed transferring the patient and getting her to surgery settled before trial, leaving only the case against the radiologist and his practice.The defense radiologist dropped his cross-claim against the vascular surgeon on the morning of trial—a strategic move to prevent the Gismondis from reading in favorable deposition testimony from the vascular...

  • From $45,000 Offer to $694,500 Verdict, with Bob and Zach Janssen and Ryan Froelich

    From $45,000 Offer to $694,500 Verdict, with Bob and Zach Janssen and Ryan Froelich
    Sep 23 2025
    When an insurance company told an injured driver to “take it or leave it,” the team at Janssen Law took the company to trial. In this case breakdown with host Brendan Lupetin, Bob Janssen, Ryan Froelich, and Bob’s son Zach Janssen explain that the insurer offered $45,000 – while their client had $93,000 in medical bills alone. They faced challenges, including a conservative Green Bay market and a client who didn’t have surgery and continued to work full-time. But they focused on her chronic pain and leveraged innovative trial strategies, like Ryan's memorable analogy to a grocery store visit gone wrong. The jury awarded $694,500.Learn More and Connect☑️ Bob Janssen☑️ Ryan Froelich | LinkedIn ☑️ Zach Janssen☑️ Janssen Law on LinkedIn | Facebook | YouTube☑️ Brendan Lupetin | LinkedIn☑️ Lupetin & Unatin, LLC☑️ Connect: Facebook | LinkedIn | YouTube☑️ Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTubeEpisode PreviewThe Janssen Law team’s client suffered a meniscal tear when she was rear-ended while driving her son on a snowy Wisconsin day.Progressive Insurance paid their $100,000 limits, but Wadena Insurance offered only $45,000 against the client's $500,000 underinsured motorist coverage.The defense contested liability even in a clear rear-end collision, creating opportunities for the plaintiff's team to highlight their failure to accept responsibility.Two treating doctors...
