The last thing she remembers is being on the property and going down stairs. She suffers a TBI. The defense's theory: She’s a liar. So is her husband. So are the fire personnel who responded. And the bystanders. Sagi Shaked takes host Dan Ambrose through the play-by-play of how he exposed the defense’s “conspiracy theory.” The jury saw through it and awarded a $4.5 million verdict. He also breaks down a case where a client stuffed a component TBI after his vehicle was T-boned. Sagi turned a $200,000 offer into an $800,000 verdict. And Sagi previews his TBI masterclass at TLU Beach , where he will explain why plaintiffs’ lawyers may be undersettling their cases – and how to avoid it..

The client had drugs in his system at the time of the crash; the defense argued that the evidence of the drug use should be allowed.
