I thought that this was an interesting perspective to share from an unsuccessful plaintiff. For those of you who have not followed this publicized trial, Gwyneth Paltrow has been found not liable for a 2016 serious ski accident which caused the claimant (man) to allegedly suffer “permanent traumatic brain injury, 4 broken ribs, pain, suffering, loss of enjoyment of life”.
Paltrow was awarded $1 in symbolic damages and reimbursement for her legal fees. Sanderson, who initially sued for $3m, said the legal action was “absolutely not” worth it.
