David McManus Obtains Defense Verdict in Wrongful Death Lawsuit

David J. McManus obtained a defense verdict for a prominent vascular surgeon in a medical malpractice wrongful-death case.  The case was tried in the Circuit Court for Baltimore County over the course of six days.  Plaintiffs claimed that the proposed surgery was not indicated, and that the decision to proceed with the surgery caused the patient’s death.  We introduced evidence that the proposed procedure was indicated and necessary under prevailing standards of care.  The jury deliberated for six hours before returning a defense verdict.
