Bitten by Bed Bugs - Couple Receives Five Figure Verdict


 Recently, a couple sued J.C. Penny after they were bitten by bed bugs that had infested a mattress and furniture set purchased from the store. https://askcompetentlawyer.com/business-commercial-litigation/ According to court files, the couple experienced months of itching and scratching after the bed bugs continued to bite them each night they slept in the bed. Although J.C. Penny offered to remove the furniture and exterminate the couple's bedroom, they decided to contact a lawyer and prosecute this matter. A jury returned a verdict of almost $50,000.00 to compensate this couple for their pain and suffering.

Many hotels and motels throughout South Florida are infested with bed bugs. Not only do these bugs bite, they can carry and pass disease. Additionally, the bites can leave permanent scarring and disfigurement to the body.
