Congratulations to our Medical Malpractice Team!?Deutsch Kerrigan attorneys Karen Holland and Derek Graves successfully defended our client, a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA), in a medical negligence lawsuit in the 19th Judicial District Court. The case involved two surgeries during which the plaintiff suffered cardiac events after receiving anesthesia. ? While the plaintiff alleged an allergic reaction to the anesthetic, expert testimony disproved this claim. The jury found that our client met the standard of care, resulting in a defense verdict. ? #DefenseVerdict #CRNA #negligence #MedicalNegligence
