Katherine Cortesy Examines Recorded Medical and Vocational Examinations in WDC Journal
Baker Sterchi attorney Katherine Cortesy authored “Privacy Please: The Case Against Recorded Medical and Vocational Examinations,” published in the spring edition of Wisconsin Civil Trial Journal, a publication of the Wisconsin Defense Counsel (WDC). The article argues that courts should generally deny requests to record independent medical, vocational and psychological examinations because recordings can compromise the validity of the evaluations, while existing litigation safeguards protect the parties’ interests.
Based in the firm’s Madison office, Cortesy handles insurance defense litigation with an emphasis on personal injury, products liability and medical malpractice. She is a member of the WDC’s Women in the Law Committee and Young Lawyer Committee. Cortesy earned her law degree from the University of Wisconsin Law School and is licensed to practice in Wisconsin.
