Apparently in certain situations/cases. I took a calculated risk not to go w/a jury.
When I get called to jury duty (never chosen), people in line just complain, and I didn't want that kind of person on my jury. People have baggage, no money etc.
I could have gotten a LOT less with the judge's decision. There was a low and high mark. I'm glad I got what I got. I can't complain. I haven't heard the breakdown yet.

Also, with a judge's decision, there can't be an appeal.

All medical bills get paid first, then the lawyer. I also have to reimburse the police witnesses' salaries, and all my other witnesses, (a former client came from Baltimore to testify on my work ethic)then all doctor letters etc.

I hope I NEVER EVER have to go through this again. Ick.

I finally feel great, emotionally, after 3 long years. :D

So glad to hear it's all over, finally.:) You must be a strong person to
put up with the stress & pain for so long. You certainly were in the right
and the judge saw that. I am so glad for you Karen.:)
