Sometimes low-tech is the way to go

Juries don’t always need a fancy, high-tech argument.

During a medical malpractice case, we faced a very skilled defense lawyer.

We had fought a good fight, and during the trial, we had settled with the most culpable defendants.

Those defendants were released from the case and therefore did not testify or appear at the trial.

There was one defendant left standing who would not settle, and, at his side, was the aforementioned defense lawyer.

While we used animations, graphics, etc. at the trial, this defense lawyer had nothing for his closing argument except a big poster board and a writing utensil.

He simply placed the poster on the witness stand, wrote the names of the already-settling defendants onto the poster, pointed around the room, and asked, “Where are these doctors?”

It became very clear to the jury that the doctors had settled without him saying it.

It was low-tech, and it was effective.

If you or a loved one has been injured due to someone else’s negligence, it’s time to take a stand.
