The
defense of Pediatric malpractice demands the highest caliber
of systematic investigation of clinical data and discovered
evidence. When a plaintiff is successful against a pediatrician,
the odds are that the total expense will be 40% higher
than other specialists' costs of litigation.
|
 |
|
|
|
The Pedaegis ObjectiView™ process is rooted in
the values of honesty and forthrightness, so that pediatricians
fully benefit from earnest support in defense of their practices.
|
 |
Our pediatrician — reviewers study and evaluate every detail
of every page of submitted information - the office record,
the hospital record, depositions, narratives, and interrogatories.
They will ask for and seek out all missing information. As the
investigation unfolds, Pedaegis will pursue and gather additional
input as indicated. |
 |
The data and information are then synthesized using investigative
techniques to reconstruct and evaluate the case in detail, focusing
on all the facts known at the moments of clinical decision. |
 |
The specifics of the reconstructed case are then comparatively
researched. |
 |
This process culminates in a dispassionate model of the defense's
strenghths and weaknesses, a view based on the sum of all the
significant facts. |
 |
With the results of our investigation, clients can make the
best possible decision whether to litigate or to settle. If
the decision is to litigate, we will assertively prepare clients
by working behind the scenes to prepare them for trial and to
prepare their expert witnesses.
While we will are willing to serve as experts in court, our
preference is to coach a local physician-expert, one who feels
that he or she can provide objective information and testify
according to the tenets of proper expert behavior as outlined
by many specialty societies. This strategy effectively sidesteps
the prosecution’s efforts to paint the defense expert
as a “hired gun” – which the plaintiff’s
expert will most certainly be.
|
 |
|
THE RESULT. Our client has
solid information to bolster his legal defense and has strengthened
his credibility against the experts of the plaintiff.
