Verdict Videos produced a highly effective day in the life video for mediation for a 27-year old plaintiff that had gone into septic shock after she received inadequate treatment for a urinary tract infection and kidney stone obstruction. As a result of the hospital’s negligence, all four of her limbs were amputated. The plaintiff had two young children whom subsequently had to care for their mother.

The settlement amount represented the cost of future medical care and was one of the largest actual recoveries by a medical malpractice plaintiff in California history. Conal Doyle of Doyle Law used his intimate knowledge of prosthetics to ensure that the future Life Care Plan represented full and fair compensation for the plaintiff.

Conal Doyle is an award winning trial lawyer who has received national recognition for his courtroom victories that have had broad reaching impact on society.
