EGLET, KEMP AND PARKER WIN MULTI-BILLION-DOLLAR VERDICT AGAINST REAL WATER IN LANDMARK CASE

In a historic courtroom victory, Robert Eglet of Eglet Law, Will Kemp of Kemp Jones, LLP  and Theodore Parker of Parker Nelson Associates have secured a record-breaking, multi-billion-dollar verdict, against Real Water, Inc., holding the company accountable for poisoning consumers with toxic, chemically contaminated alkaline water. This verdict marks one of the largest product liability awards in U.S. history, delivering justice for Lisa King and over 60 victims who suffered severe, lifelong health complications. The jury found Real Water, liable for product defects, and reckless disregard for consumer safety, awarding substantial compensatory damages of 80 million and punitive damages of 3 billion, totaling 3.8 billion.

“This case was about holding corporations accountable when they knowingly endanger the public,” said Robert Eglet, lead trial attorney. “Real Water marketed itself as a healthy product, but in reality, it was poisoning people. This verdict sends a clear message—companies that put profits over people will face the full force of justice.”

The lawsuit exposed Real Water’s years-long pattern of deception, during which the company ignored multiple consumer complaints and scientific evidence linking its product to acute liver failure, autoimmune diseases, and other severe health consequences.

KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THE VERDICT:

  • Corporate Accountability: This case sets a legal precedent for product liability and consumer safety.
  • Justice for Victims: Plaintiffs, including children and families, finally receive the compensation they deserve.
  • Regulatory Oversight Failures: The verdict highlights gaps in consumer protections that allowed this crisis to unfold.
  • A Wake-Up Call for the Beverage Industry: Companies must uphold safety standards or risk massive financial and reputational consequences.

This verdict underscores Eglet Law’s reputation as one of the nation’s top litigation firms for securing record-breaking settlements and verdicts on behalf of injured victims.
