In September 2022 she co-tried Carusillo v. Metro Atlanta Recovery Residences, Inc. in DeKalb County, Georgia, which resulted in a $77.5 million jury verdict on behalf of a family whose son died after being discharged from a mental health facility. The case was among the largest medical malpractice verdicts in Georgia history. Super Lawyers has named her to the Top 50 Women in Georgia and Top 100 Women in Georgia lists, and Atlanta Magazine recognized her among the Best Young Lawyers in Georgia.
Proven verdicts and settlements
A DeKalb County jury awarded more than $77.5 million to the family of Nicholas Carusillo, a 29-year-old with bipolar disorder who was taken off lithium at Metro Atlanta Recovery Residences over his providers' objections, discharged over a phone rule violation, and killed on Interstate 85 less than three days later. MARR appealed in May 2024, and the case settled confidentially in 2025 after the Georgia Court of Appeals remanded it for settlement approval.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Each case is unique and depends on its own facts.
