John Eggum and Maya Salinas Achieve Defense Verdict on Claim of Massive Hail Damage to 31 Buildings
After a weeklong trial, Foran Glennon shareholder John Eggum and associate Maya Salinas achieved a complete defense verdict in a lawsuit brought by a large townhome association against a specialty insurer that issued a $36 million property policy to the association. The insurance claim, arising from an April 4, 2023 hailstorm claim and an April 14-15, 2023 windstorm that the policyholder never disclosed, asserted all 31 buildings at the complex suffered massive storm damage and over $2 million in damages were owed. On Friday, November 14, 2025, an eight-member jury in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois found for the defense, confirming that Foran Glennon’s insurer client owed nothing.
