June 2015 - Ivey, Barnum & O'Mara's (“IBO”) representation of the Estate of Concetta Russo-Carriero in its wrongful death action against the City of White Plains was included in the New York Law Journal's "Top Verdicts of 2014". IBO attorneys presented evidence over the course of three weeks to demonstrate that the City of White Plains had failed to properly secure or protect the parking garage adjacent to the Galleria Mall, where Mrs. Russo-Carriero was assaulted and killed walking to her parked car in late June, 2005. After three days of deliberations, the jury returned a verdict in favor of Mrs. Russo-Carriero's estate in the amount of $ 1,983,000 for her conscious pain and suffering and wrongful death.
