David Kleinberg led the charge in a 6.5 week jury trial in Palm Beach County. Two teenage girls (14 and 15 years old) drove a defective jet ski that resulted in brain injury and severe maiming of one girl and the other’s death. Mr. Kleinberg, and his team,faced an onslaught of the defense’s engineers, naval architects, human-factors experts, accident-reconstruction experts.
Ultimately, Mr. Kleinberg was able to prove that our client was telling the truth and that Yamaha had ignored 20 years of notice that the particular problem at issue (known as off-throttle steering) had been causing many injuries coupled with the fact that Yamaha had the ability to fix the problem the way their competitors had instead of electing to put their profits over the well being of safety.
