Hunter Shkolnik recently tried and won a case on behalf of a woman who experienced Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) after undergoing spinal surgery for a back injury. RSD is a neurologic pain syndrome that can have devastating effects. It is treatable if diagnosed early, but here the treating surgeon failed to make the diagnosis for several months, despite clear signs. By the time the client was referred for treatment, it was too late. The defendant doctor refused to permit the insurance carrier to negotiate and the case went to trial.
The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff in the amount of $1 million. Marie Sayhoun v. Richard Radna.
