Proven verdicts and settlements

$1.25 millionVerdict

A truck driver lost his right leg below the knee in 2015 after a nurse at Methodist Hospital in Gary placed an IV in his foot without a doctor's order and he was discharged days later. A Lake County jury returned $11 million in November 2022, and the trial court reduced it to the $1.25 million statutory cap under the Indiana Medical Malpractice Act. After the Court of Appeals ordered a new trial, the Indiana Supreme Court affirmed the verdict in June 2025.
