Josepher & Batteese, P.A. Obtain Defense Verdict
Ron Josepher and Ted Gale won a defense verdict for a general pediatrician in a wrongful death medical malpractice case in Hillsborough County. The decedent was a 23-month-old boy. It was alleged that the defendant had failed to appreciate signs of pneumonia during an office encounter with the child. The boy died of a fulminant group A strep pneumonia approximately 40 hours after the appointment. During the trial, the defense team was able to establish through the testimony of expert pediatricians, that the doctor’s assessment of the patient was appropriate and accurate, and through the testimony of a specialist in pediatric infectious diseases and the pathology results, that the pneumonia developed rapidly at least 30 hours after the appointment.

Josepher & Batteese, P.A. Obtain Defense Verdict
Tyler Batteese and Ron Josepher secured a defense verdict in a two-week trial for a pediatric cardiologist who was accused of inappropriately performing a cardiac catheterization on a three-day old infant which lead to complications resulting in the amputation of the infant’s right leg. The child was five at the time of trial. He and his mother were both very sympathetic witnesses. However, the defense was able to demonstrate that the cardiologist was correct in the judgment to perform the catheterization in order to rule out potentially fatal congenital cardiac abnormalities that the child showed some indication of on other studies.
