Episode 3: Negotiating Settlements in Medical Malpractice Cases

ttorney Craig Steger, a medical malpractice attorney, expresses his challenges with negotiating settlements in medical malpractice cases. He pointed out the reluctance of defendants to offer compensation in medical malpractice cases, leaving clients with the possibility or probability of getting nothing. Craig also highlighted the risks associated with medical malpractice cases, noting the insurance industry's winning record and the uncertainty of potential damages and trial outcomes. He concluded that in most cases, going to trial is the only way to receive the full measure of damages. Pre-trial settlement, if it happens at all, often means settling for a small fraction of the injured person's actual damages. #Iowa #Minnesota #Wisconsin #medicalmalpracticelawyer #medicalmalpractice #tortreform #personalinjury #personalinjurylawyer #medicalnegligence #jury #juryduty #jurytrial #verdict
