Nguyen v. TIAG is the shorthand used in published accounts of the Fulton County wrongful death trucking litigation involving the death of Tony Nguyen. The firm describes the result as $99.9 million. Brendan Flanagan served on the trial team. The underlying trial-court file is 22EV001148; the related appeals remained pending when checked on October 16, 2026.[4][5][2][3]
Results described on this page are summarized from the cited sources. Past results do not guarantee a similar outcome, and every matter depends on its own facts and law.
Case identity and trial team
The phase-two verdict form is captioned Thuy Hang Thi Huynh, individually and as administrator of the estate of Tony Nguyen, v. Transportation Inc Agent Group, Inc. The Daily Report's March 26, 2025 coverage identifies Flanagan alongside Ben Brodhead, Alex Nguyen and Mike Terry. This reference describes his participation on the trial team without attributing the entire result to one lawyer.[1][6][5]
The verdict components
The accessible Daily Report opening reports a $66.25 million verdict before the second phase. The March 20, 2025 phase-two form awards $31,500,000 in attorney fees for obtaining compensatory damages, $68,718.72 in litigation expenses and $250,000 in punitive damages. These components should not be described collectively as compensatory damages or as the amount a client took home.[6][1]
The firm's case study describes evidence-preservation failures, including the loss of the truck and electronic evidence, and reports that the trial proceeded in two phases. The available Daily Report opening also connects the second verdict to alleged destruction of evidence. The detailed account of the missing items remains attributed to the firm; the underlying spoliation order was not obtained for this reference.[4][6]
Different published totals
TopVerdict lists Nguyen v. Transp. Inc. Agent Grp. Inc. at $98,068,719, while the firm uses $99.9 million. The reviewed sources do not establish a single reconciled final judgment amount. The publication therefore preserves the distinction rather than treating the firm's rounded figure as an exact sum of the jury awards or as proof of collection.[7][4]
Pending appeals
The Court of Appeals docket lists A27A0339, brought by Transportation Inc. Agent Group, Inc., and A27A0340, brought by Huynh and others. Both were docketed September 3, 2026 and displayed Case Pending-Briefs Filed at the check. Both records list Brendan C. Flanagan among counsel on Huynh's side. They identify appealed orders from April 2026, not an appellate decision approving a final recovery.[2][3]
