Reported Cases:
Significant Representative Matters: Received a unanimous defense verdict of behalf of a neurosurgeon and neurosurgical practice. The plaintiff presented with a sacral aneurysmal bone cyst that was causing compression on her lower lumbar and sacral nerve roots. Post-surgery, the plaintiff's experts alleged that the lower sacral nerve roots were transected by the defendants during the surgery. The defendants (and their experts) contended that the nerves were not transected, but instead were further injured by the necessary manipulation involved in removing the tumor - a recognized and accepted potential complication of this type of surgery.; Published Works: 'Vicarious Liability -- Do You Really Need an Affidavit of Merit?'
