Frederick “Rick” Sager Jr. led a defense team from Weinberg Wheeler Hudgins Gunn & Dial that has successfully wrapped up a product liability defense over a devastating injury that happened 21 years ago.

The litigation had been going on for 19 years. The firm had the case for a decade. They tried it three times. The first was a mistrial. The second was a defense win, but it was reversed on appeal. When the defense won the third time in May, Sager didn’t even want to talk about it, fearing another appellate battle. When the deadline passed for the other side to file a notice of appeal in June, he still wanted to wait another week, in case there was a delay in the appeal being docketed.
