Fellow LDM Attorney Olivia McDowell and I recently obtained a defense verdict for our client in a medical malpractice case tried in Iowa. Plaintiffs alleged our family practice physician failed to take proper precautions when ordering a standing x-ray. Earlier that day the nurses had determined the plaintiff was a "high fall risk." She sustained a serous fracture and became critically ill in the months that followed. This outcome was teamwork at its best - Olivia was a wonderful trial partner. She handled both the opening statement and closing argument. Olivia skillfully and patiently managed the jury instructions. Together we prepared our client for the possibllity he would be called in Plaintiffs’ case. When this occurred his hard work paid off. He was poised, prepared and advocated for himself. He clearly explained how medicine often involves trading one set of risks for another. Wonderful work! Lamson Dugan and Murray LLP is an absolutely amazing place to try medical malpractice cases. Bright fun hardworking people who enjoy competing. Please consider joining us! Three quick observations: First, we successfully frustrated the plaintiffs' lawyers from jury anchoring during jury selection. Thank you Olivia! Second, we appreciate the partnership with our claims professional who allowed us to try the case and played such a vital role during trial. Finally, for the second trial in a row, we heard prospective jurors state our courts in Iowa are "broken." While interesting, it is my strong belief as trial lawyers this is not a narrative we should be perpetuating. In my experience it is simply not true. One of the rewarding things about trying cases in Iowa is that the vast majority of people take jury service so seriously. Our judge, court reporter and court attendant were prepared, knowledgeable, organized, and accommodating. This was my second medical malpractice jury trial in this courtroom in four weeks. We successfully tried both cases in about a week. That type of efficiency demonstrates the courts in Iowa are functioning very well. Something we should all be celebrating.

Andrew Garza and Alexa Mahony—of CSG’s 7-, 8-, and 9-figure verdict trial team—will moderate this workshop led by Jonathan Kocienda, highlighting the hidden opportunities, dangers, and mistakes plaintiff’s lawyers make in litigating medical malpractice cases. Topics include: · Uncovering the hidden data that hospitals don’t want you to know about; · Getting trapped by medicine “tunnel vision” instead of trying your case; · Keeping experts and their egos on a leash to effectively persuade jurors; · Understanding the truth beyond the records and weaponizing them for cross-examination; and · Leveraging the fear of professional embarrassment to coopt defense experts. Jak (“Jake”) Kocienda brings over 22 years of medical malpractice experience, including 18 years on the defense side handling hundreds of cases in litigation and through trial. In his time on the “dark side,” Jak was requested by name to defend Connecticut’s major hospital networks and medical groups. In 2023, he returned to his plaintiff roots to head the Medical Malpractice Division at Claggett, Sykes & Garza, LLC, Claggett & Sykes Law Firm’s new East Coast firm.
