this was a case that we had brought to
us by another firm uh for trial so often
times firm other firms will bring us
their cases before trial because they
know that that’s what we do we try cases
so this was going to a jury trial the
case was a uh medical provider a
hospital had left a sponge inside of
somebody uh during a surgery and they
caught it a couple days later and they
removed it and so the hospital says
“Look no harm no foul we caught the
sponge we took it out big deal he had
him for two days.” and we said “No
actually the sponge you left in this
person caused a lot of other
damage that occurred over the ensuing
weeks and months.” So the other firm had
this case and they tried to negotiate it
out early on and the hospital said “Nope
we’re not interested in talking at all
we’re not going to be making an offer.”
And we got on the case and about 10 days
before trial they made an offer of
$175,000 and they said “That’s our only
offer our last offer our best offer
$175,000.” And we went to trial in Duth
and we tore into their experts and we
put on a great case and we had great
clients a beautiful couple actually a
beautiful man that this happened to and
the jury came back and awarded $2.1
million and that was last summer and the
reason it it pops to mind is I I really
I like that family a lot i like that man
a lot and everybody in that case got
exactly what they deserved
