In addition, Dale has successfully handled cases involving the following subject matters. One of Dale’s most recent settlements involved a case against Howard Berger Manufacturing of New Jersey. Dale filed a Complaint alleging that a defective space heater was responsible for the death of an individual. By working with experts from the Kentucky State Police and local Fire Marshall’s Office, in conjunction with retained experts who testified about cause and origin as well as the most likely product defect, the case was settled for $3.89 million dollars.

While in Chicago, Greg met his beautiful wife, Aaron Ann Rose Cole, who was a fellow criminal prosecutor.  Aaron Ann was born and raised in Lexington, Kentucky and her extended family is from Fayette County and Mercer County.  Greg and Aaron Ann were married in Harrodsburg, Kentucky in 2012 and are the proud parents of two young sons.  Aaron Ann is still fighting crime as an Assistant Commonwealth Attorney in Fayette County..
