Kimball Jones: Pricing the Priceless

Welcome back to Legally Vegas! ⚖️🎙️ In this episode, Jacqueline Bretell (@jrb.esq, CEO & Partner at Bighorn Law @bighorn_law) sits down with her law partner, Kimball Jones, to take viewers behind the scenes of one of the most significant cases Bighorn Law has tried: the $56.5 million jury verdict awarded on behalf of Omar Alrabadi. After Omar, an active-duty Navy servicemember, was brutally attacked outside Chayo at the LINQ Promenade in Las Vegas and left unconscious in the doorway of the Flamingo Hotel and Casino, his case became a fight over more than just compensation. It became a case about premises liability, negligent security, corporate responsibility, evidence preservation, and access to justice. ⚖️ Topics in this episode: The $56.5 Million Verdict Kimball walks Jacquie through the Omar Alrabadi case, the devastating injuries Omar suffered, and how the jury ultimately reached a $56.5 million. What Happened at Chayo? A look at what happened the night Omar was attacked, including the allegations surrounding the security staff, the attackers, and the events that ultimately left Omar with a fractured skull and a traumatic brain injury. The Missing Evidence & Video Kimball discusses the discovery of multiple sets of witness statements, delayed incident reports, missing surveillance footage, and more than 1,000 additional videos that were ultimately produced after years of litigation. The Importance of Traumatic Brain Injury Experts Omar's injuries weren't always visible from the outside. Jacquie and Kimball discuss the challenges of presenting a traumatic brain injury case to a jury and the role of medical experts, including renowned neuropathologist Dr. Bennet Omalu. Building the Case & Picking the Jury What goes into preparing a high-stakes catastrophic injury case? Kimball shares insight into jury selection, addressing potential juror bias, presenting damages, and asking a jury to consider a verdict in the tens of millions of dollars. Why This Verdict Matters for Las Vegas The conversation goes beyond one case to examine security, corporate accountability, evidence preservation, and what these issues mean for visitors and residents who expect to be safe while enjoying Las Vegas. The Bighorn Law Trial Team Jacquie and Kimball also recognize the attorneys, experts, paralegals, staff, and co-counsel attorneys who helped bring Omar's case to trial—and discuss Bighorn Law's evolution into a trial-focused firm committed to going ALL IN for its clients.
