Mr. McCarthy has handled a wide range of medical malpractice and personal injury claims, business and real estate transactions and other areas of civil litigation. He worked on a case that resulted in a record-breaking $51 million verdict for a client who was severely injured in an automobile collision. The verdict is the highest Illinois compensatory verdict for personal injury. He also worked on a case that resulted in a record-high verdict of $12,508,098 for the family of a quadriplegic child who drowned in a bathtub after being left unattended by her home health care nurse. The verdict is an Illinois high for death of a minor and is also a record high for death of a severely disabled individual.. Mr. McCarthy also handled a jury trial involving a breach of contract and fraud claim between two corporations regarding the sale of newspaper publications. The plaintiff pierced the defendant’s “corporate veil” and obtained a jury verdict in the amount of $580,. The plaintiff also won a motion to award pre-judgment interest of almost $85,. The judgment was affirmed on appeal in its entirety. The plaintiff then moved to collect on the judgment through a citation to discover assets and was forced to file a complaint to set aside a fraudulent transfer of the defendant’s largest tangible asset, the real estate of its president. The transfer was set aside and then the plaintiff levied against the real estate. Shortly before the levy sale, the defendant paid the judgment, plus post-judgment interest and costs, in full.. Mr. McCarthy’s practice is concentrated in real estate tax sale, tax deed and exemption matters; Indemnity Fund proceedings; sheriff levy sales; medical malpractice and personal injury claims; business and real estate transactions and other areas of civil litigation.
