In Season 5 of Beating Goliath: A Plaintiff’s Pursuit of Justice, you will hear the story of Jeremy Dutton, a 42-year-old fourth-generation truck driver who loved his job and was a true Southern family man. But a crash on the job led to years of discomfort and pain that changed life as he knew it.

In July 2018, Jeremy was rear-ended by a pickup truck while completing his route to Ohio along Eastbound I-70 near Vandalia, Illinois. The impact of the collision caused Jeremy to be forcefully thrown back and forth in the driver’s seat of the truck. Jeremy underwent surgery, but unfortunately, he still experiences neuropathic pain to this day.

A man of modest means, Jeremy enlisted the help of Chicago personal injury attorneys at Salvi, Schostok & Pritchard to help with his mounting medical bills. This is the story of how his legal team defied the odds against them and secured the first-ever plaintiff’s verdict in Fayette County, Illinois – an impressive 8-figure recovery for Jeremy and his family.

In the final episode of this three-part series, Plaintiff Billy Fern takes the stand and finally has the chance to share his truth with the jury.

Once the jury hears from all the witnesses for both the defense and plaintiffs, Billy’s attorneys from Salvi, Schostok & Pritchard ask the jury for $40 million dollars to compensate Billy for his physical and financial losses. Billy’s future now lies in the hands of the jury. It’s the moment of truth. Will they agree with the Ferns and see the magnitude of this medical error, or will they see things from the doctors’ side?
