The New Power 30 – Antonio Romanucci.
It’s one of the most significant wrongful death cases of our time: the federal civil lawsuit against the City of Minneapolis and four officers associated with the May 2020 asphyxiation death of George Floyd. Joining a team led by high-profile civil rights attorney Ben Crump, with whom Romanucci has partnered to create a policy proposal on police reform, the Chicago trial lawyer brings to bear an impressive track record in mass tort and police misconduct cases, including one that resulted in a $21.3 million verdict against the City of Chicago. If Romanucci’s team wins, it will be seen as a victory not just for Floyd’s family but for everyone who stood up and marched in Floyd’s name.
