Abigail and co-counsel represented a local nursing home for defense on claims brought on behalf of a deceased patient for Wrongful Death and Nursing Home Care Act. The case involved complex medical conditions, medication issues, and competing expert opinions. The jury returned a Not Guilty on the Wrongful Death Count, and a very low verdict on the Nursing Home Care Act Count. The verdict totaled less than a quarter of what Plaintiffs asked for from the jury.
