ANSWER:
Mr. Henke has a national reputation as an effective, successful and determined medical malpractice lawyer as reflected in scores of newspaper articles about Mr. Henke and his medical malpractice trial work in legitimate national legal periodicals, legitimate national newspapers, magazines, and national television. Mr. Henke also testified before Congress at the invitation of the Chairman of the Judiciary Committee of the United States House of Representatives on his legal work in several medical malpractice cases, including his use of claims for punitive damages to set examples of physician and hospital defendants who consciously disregard the safety, health and rights of others.
QUESTION:
Can the medical malpractice lawyer verify that he is an effective legal advocate, by citation to important published appellate victories he has achieved? A lawyer's appellate success matters because it is a good measure of the attorney's vitally important general ability to argue and persuade on legal issues. It is an ability that is not just essential on appeals. It is an ability essential to the medical malpractice attorneys effectiveness in meeting all the big and small challenges presented at every stage of medical malpractice litigation, e.g., by pretrial motions, which can seriously affect settlement posture as well as the respective parties' important advantages or disadvantages at trial. Your attorney's willingness to ask the appellate court to immediately reverse a bad pretrial decision that guts the medical malpractice case may also be essential to achieve the quickest and best result. Legal advocacy is also a talent essential during the medical malpractice trial, as the medical malpractice lawyer must be able to effectively argue legal issues, e.g., the admissibility of the defendant physician's admission of fault or the inadmissibility of prejudicial medical or character evidence, or the permissibility of expert opinion testimony, etc. Then, if you "hit big" at trial, the defendant is almost certain to appeal, and you may then require superior legal advocacy to hold on to your victory.
ANSWER:
Mr. Henke has had extraordinary published and verifiable appellate victories in substantial medical malpractice and pharmaceutical product liability litigation. As one example, on behalf of a single aggrieved client Mr. Henke obtained the reversal of a $120,000,000 Ohio Federal District Court approved settlement purporting to bind 1000 drug product liability claimants joined in the Ohio Court and all others injured by the product nationwide. On a petition for writ of mandate to the United States Court of Appals for the Sixth Circuit, Mr. Henke also obtained the reversal of the Ohio Federal District Court's certification of a national mandatory pharmaceutical product liability class action. Mr. Henke's argument, accepted by the Court of Appeals as requiring both decisions was that Mr. Henke's client was denied his right to counsel of his choice and control over his individual litigation. The appellate decision effected an important and enduring change in the law severely restricting the availability of mandatory, as opposed to voluntary class actions in "mass disaster" litigation.
As another example, when a trial judge applied newly enacted medical malpractice tort reform legislation to deprive Mr. Henke's client s of their punitive damage claims in a physician drug fraud case, Mr. Henke obtained a stay of the medical malpractice trial and filed in the Court of Appeals an "extraordinary writ" seeking an immediate reversal of the trial court's order. The Court granted the writ of mandamus, ordering the trial court to reverse its order and permit Henke's medical malpractice clients to pursue their punitive damage claims. It also rendered an important published appellate opinion reinterpreting the repressive medical malpractice tort reform legislation to deprive it of nearly all of its negative force and effect.
QUESTION:
In sophisticated medical malpractice litigation, which commonly turns on the quality of the experts called by the medical malpractice attorneys for the plaintiff and the those called by the attorneys for the defendant physician, has the medical malpractice lawyer demonstrated the ability to inspire the most qualified medical experts to testify for his medical malpractice clients.
ANSWER:
