Deconstruction of a Recent Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Jury Trial
Attorneys James Mendel and Levi Bendele of Lee Smart discuss some of the latest plaintiff theories and out-of-state experts that Mr. Mendel faced in a recent mTBI trial in Snohomish County, which resulted in a defense victory. The discussion will include strategy regarding the use of neurologists v. neuropsychologists, garnering support from neuroradiologists, questionable findings from out-of-state plaintiff neurological experts, plaintiff trial tactics including attacks on neuropsychologists who do not allow videotaping during neuropsychological testing (i.e. all reputable neuropsychologists), and countering such tactics with testimony from treating neuropsychologists.
Please email any questions about this topic in advance to Levi Bendele, lb@leesmart.com.
