A defense verdict was obtained by our attorneys for a physician in a brain injury case, concluding nearly four years of litigation. The case involved allegations that an episode of neonatal hypoglycemia shortly after birth caused severe brain injury, resulting in spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome.
The plaintiffs, represented by a national personal injury firm known for high-dollar verdicts in similar cases, sought more than $20 million in combined economic and non-economic damages.
Following an eleven-day trial, the twelve-member jury deliberated for just over an hour before returning a verdict in favor of the physician, finding no negligence in the care and treatment provided to the child.
