"In 2018 there was a school shooting in Marshall County Kentucky. When I was contacted by family members of the deceased and the injured students, I did not know where to start.
Hi, I'm Sheila Hiestand, and I'm a founding partner with McCoy & Hiestand, PLC. I contacted Expert Institute, and they connected me with an expert in school safety to opine on the steps that are taken to prepare for, and prevent a school shooter which gave me the map, and the plan to start the litigation so that I could help these families.
After several years of litigation we were able to successfully obtain a default judgment against the shooter, his mother, and his stepfather. After that we were able to get a judgment for $36 million dollars. Now it's likely that we'll never be able to collect on that judgment but it will prevent the shooter and his family from ever profiting off this tragedy."
