A Miami-Dade jury has awarded $14.5 million against Geico to a former chiropractor who was severely injured in a highway collision with an uninsured motorist.
Jurors sided with Dr. David Zucker and his wife on Monday in awarding $14.5 million for past and future lost earnings, medical expenses, pain and suffering. Zucker suffered permanent spinal and urologic injuries in the collision near the Golden Glades interchange in December 2004. The award included $2.5 million to his wife and passenger, Carrie Zucker, for loss of consortium. She was pregnant at the time.
