Proven verdicts and settlements
A 36-year-old woman suffered bilateral ureter damage and bladder perforation during a laparoscopic hysterectomy, developed acute renal failure, and settled her malpractice claim in Fredericksburg Circuit Court for $1.5 million.
A 55-year-old woman underwent an unnecessarily complex double-fusion bunion surgery that failed to heal properly, requiring three additional procedures before she reached a $775,000 settlement with her podiatrist.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Each case is unique and depends on its own facts.
