Hallford, Oliver and Meadows Obtain Defense Verdict

Carr Allison’s Pam Hallford, Tom Oliver and Brook Meadows have obtained a defense verdict on behalf of one of the South’s most prominent motor carriers. In 2018, an accident involving a pedestrian and a commercial motor vehicle resulted in severe injury. A claim was almost immediately brought against the motor carrier who quickly retained Pam and Tom.

After forensic investigation and rapid response, prison depositions, hours of witness preparation and an unsuccessful mediation, the case finally went to trial. Pam and Brook actively defended the trial in Elmore County, Alabama. Five years of litigation culminated in verdict for the defense.

Congratulations to Pam, Tom and Brook!
