## Resource

John Medler, Founding Partner of Medler Law, will explain why, because of MICRA's caps on non-economic damages, it is essential for the plaintiff's lawyer to maximize the damages which have no caps in medical malpractice cases — namely, economic damages. Too many plaintiff's lawyers allow defense experts to reduce their client's economic damages to "present value." By adopting the strategies in this webinar, you can not only exclude the defendant's experts' opinions on "present value," but can also dramatically increase your own economic damages, leading to a dramatically higher medical malpractice jury verdict.
