California verdict news | October 2025
Courtroom View Network reported a $3.85 million verdict in October 2025 for Salvador Calderas, whose vehicle was rear-ended by a San Bernardino County sheriff’s deputy in 2021. The County admitted liability. The trial focused on the claimed neck and back injuries, spinal surgery and the necessity of later treatment. The Simon Law Group represented Calderas.
Document what happened after the first operation
A dispute about later care requires more than proof that the first surgery occurred. Organize postoperative symptoms, examinations, the response to treatment and recommendations for additional procedures. Include earlier injuries and physically demanding work in the history so the medical analysis is complete. A verdict below a plaintiff’s demand can still exceed an earlier offer; neither comparison establishes a standard value for another case.
