Successfully represented the insurer in the liability phase of a bifurcated trial centering on a fire, caused by a downed and arcing power line, that destroyed multiple residences. After five days of trial, the Cozen O'Connor team secured a verdict in our client's favor, having convinced the jury that the defendant power company was negligent in its handling of the call reporting the downed line.
