In one such case, he obtained a defense verdict in favor of an emergency room doctor and his group practice following a 3 week jury trial against claims of wrongful death for an alleged failure to diagnose aortic dissection.  He has secured multiple defense verdicts in wrongful death and other significant damage cases despite medical review panel opinions in favor of plaintiffs in those same cases.  He has developed particular expertise in the emergency medicine, radiology, anesthesiology, dentistry and surgical disciplines.
