Historically, doctors can win up to sixty or seventy percent of the cases that go to trial, so, the attorney for the plaintiff, for the victim, for the innocent party that is seeking damages needs to be experienced in the field of medicine – experienced in trying complicated malpractice cases and simplifying the concepts for the jury to be able to explain to the jury what the doctor did wrong and why the victim should be compensated.
