Congratulations to Minh Wai and Jacquelyn Fernandez Leyva on their outstanding work in a recent Indiana trial! After being asked to parachute-in on a challenging slip-and-fall case involving claims of severe injuries, including a permanent traumatic brain injury, their strategic approach led to a final verdict aligned with our analysis - coming in significantly under the plaintiff's demand. With three hours of jury deliberation, this outcome showcases the precision of our team's evaluation. We're thrilled to share this win with our client and commend Minh, Jacquelyn, and their trial team for their representation. #trialvictory #kpdlaw #defenseattorneys #attorneysatlaw

👏 Congratulations to Gregory Glen and Amanda Eggemeyer McCubbin in their most recent trial win out of Cook County, Illinois. KPD was called to parachute-in on this slip and fall case, where the plaintiff alleged a defective sidewalk, allowing water to accumulate and freeze overnight. While walking her dog, the plaintiff slipped and fell, sustaining injuries. Plaintiff's counsel demanded more than $3 million for pain and suffering, loss of normal life, and emotional distress. After listening to experts, witnesses, and examinations in this three-day trial, the jury awarded the plaintiff under $600,000. A successful outcome for our trial team!

We are proud to partner with Marion County Bar Association on the Kuykendall-Conn Gala this year.
My partner Renee Scott-Mitchell, JD, CPCU, CLU and I had the best time at the Marion County Bar Association (MCBA)’s Kuykendall-Conn Gala this past Saturday night! The Gala was the kickoff to celebrating nearly 100 years of how the black bar in the Indianapolis area has impacted our profession locally and nationally. We have made strides, but there is still so much more to do, and I was inspired to do more. Thank you to my firm Kopka Pinkus Dolin’s commitment to diversity and sponsoring our attendance!

We are fortunate to build partnerships with companies and organizations that share our goals of risk management. Robert Kopka joined Jeffery Sallet (of EY), Chief Leo Schmitz (of Cook County Sheriff's Department), and General Kwame Raoul (Attorney General of the State of Illinois) at the WTW (formerly Liazon) Conference to discuss the critical issue of retail theft and strategies for mitigating risk. Collaborating with like-minded professionals helps us drive meaningful solutions. Special thanks to WTW and to our esteemed panelists. #wtw #riskmanagement #kpdlaw #2024conference
