Meyer et al v. Hughes et al
Decision date: 05/28/08
Case No. 07-CV-2274
State of Wisconsin/Circuit Court/Dane County
Jury Trial

In this Dane County case, CLG successfully defended a driver alleged to have injured the plaintiff in a motor vehicle accident. Specifically, plaintiff claimed to have sustained nearly $9,000 in medical specials, stemming from injuries she suffered from, over a period of 4 years. The nature of plaintiff's injuries and the duration of her healing period was supported by plaintiff's treating physicians. Prior to trial, plaintiffs had filed a statutory offer of $19,500, and defendants filed a statutory offer of $7,000. The jury returned a defense verdict of $6,700 after CLG was able to successfully argue that plaintiff's injuries were minor and resolved shortly after the accident.


Erickson v. Dr. M
Decision date: 04/11/08
Case No. 05-CV-239
State of Wisconsin/Circuit Court/Green County
Jury Trial

In this medical negligence case, CLG successfully defended a surgeon who was alleged to have been negligent in performing a wrong-site hernia repair necessitating a second hernia repair. Plaintiff claimed to have suffered pain and suffering, as well as emotional distress, related to the incident, and had most recently demanded $20,000 to settle the case. At trial, the jury awarded only $5,000 in damages. (Defendants had offered to settle the case for $5,000 early in the litigation.) During trial, and in motions after verdict, CLG filed motions to dismiss, based on the fact that plaintiffs had no expert witness, and that the court had improperly given the res ipsa loquitor instruction. Plaintiffs subsequently decided to dismiss the case rather than respond to CLG's motions, resulting in complete dismissal without any judgment being entered.


McCarn v. Dr. B
Decision date: 11/02/07
Case No. 05-CV-531
State of Wisconsin/Circuit Court/Eau Claire County
Jury Trial - No Liability

In this wrongful death case, CLG successfully defended an anesthesiologist accused of medical negligence, and negligence in providing informed consent. Plaintiff alleged the anesthesiologist was negligent in the insertion of a transesophageal echocardiography probe, which caused a tear the entire length of the plaintiff's esophagus. The laceration resulted in the plaintiff's death two weeks later. Plaintiffs requested an award of nearly a million dollars.
