Defense Verdict Obtained in Pennsylvania Medical Malpractice Case

We secured a defense verdict on behalf of an extended care facility in a medical malpractice case. The plaintiff alleged negligence regarding the development and progression of certain wounds that the plaintiff’s decedent developed throughout her treatment at various medical facilities. The evidence presented to the jury supported the argument that the decedent’s wounds occurred prior to her arrival at the insured’s facility and that, while at the facility, the wounds were properly treated.
