We live in a litigating society, but if this guy has medical

evidence substantiating his claims, along with the video evidence of the attack, 1 million is actually on the low end of a fair settlement. The amount would probably get tripled, to 3 million for punitive damages. But, Uncle Sam will get ~1.2 million of that. If the guy annually made $100,000, which is not preposterous for a good professional photog, he would essentially be getting 1800000 / 100000 x 100 /62 = 29 years worth of his salary (years calculated from how that take home would compute with a 38% tax rate per year. )

The fact that he wants a jury trial tells me that he is going for a huge out of court settlement, to save on lawyers fees.

Given my history with living with back pain, in this one case, I don't begrudge him his lawsuit at all.

Photog racked up only $24,000 in medical bills in over 21 months. I find that pretty minor in today’s medical costs.
