Forklifts present dangers. James Trujillo, a partner in The Law Office of Garcia, Dubove & Trujillo in Tyler, sent that message to a jury in Roman Montenegro v. John Soules Food Inc. He won a Dec. 11 final judgment of $189,000, which includes $167,000 for future damages for his client, Roman Montenegro.
To get those future damages, Trujillo said, he needed to cross-examine the defense’s witness, an orthopedic surgeon, and show where the doctor’s own practices appeared inconsistent with what he testified was the norm.
