PARRIS Law Firm secured a $52,115,000 jury verdict on June 18, 2026, in a catastrophic semi-truck collision trial in Santa Clarita, California. Attorneys Khail Parris, R. Rex Parris, and Curtis Crawford represented a man who sustained severe injuries in the crash. The firm announced the outcome as a phase one verdict, indicating the litigation was structured in multiple stages.

The Award and Legal Team

The $52,115,000 figure was returned by a Santa Clarita jury on behalf of the plaintiff — a man whose identity was not disclosed in the firm's announcement. Los Angeles-based PARRIS Law Firm named three attorneys as trial counsel: Khail Parris, R. Rex Parris, and Curtis Crawford. The award was announced June 18, 2026.

The Underlying Collision

PARRIS Law Firm described the underlying event as a horrific semi-truck collision in Santa Clarita. The firm's client suffered what the announcement characterized as severe injuries as a direct result of the crash. The case was designated a catastrophic injury matter, a classification that reflects the gravity of harm the plaintiff sustained.

Phase One Designation

The phase one label signals the Santa Clarita trial was bifurcated — structured so that an initial jury determination precedes additional proceedings. In such cases, a phase one verdict typically resolves foundational questions before the matter advances further. PARRIS Law Firm's announcement identified the $52,115,000 award specifically as the product of that first phase, leaving open the possibility of subsequent proceedings in the case.
