$4,100,000 Verdict - Medical Malpractice - Failure to Monitor Patient Receiving Lithium Therapy
Attorney Michael C. Jainchill of RisCassi & Davis, P.C., the Hartford-based personal injury law firm, has won a $4.1 Million Verdict in a medical-malpractice case involving the failure to properly monitor a patient who was receiving lithium therapy for bipolar disorder. Lithium is known to cause kidney damage, and he suffered bilateral renal failure, which resulted in the necessity of kidney-transplant surgery. A Tolland county jury awarded the Verdict against both the psychiatrist and the primary-care physician.
