Million Dollar Breakdown: $27M Verdict in Paralyzing Delay-of-Care Case
with Jack Cook
Attorney Jack Cook explains how his team secured a $27 million verdict for a man left permanently paralyzed after a 17-hour delay in care following routine spinal surgery. By meticulously reviewing the medical records, obtaining the hospital’s internal policies and procedures, and retrieving electronic audit logs to verify who was in the room and when, the team demonstrated that clear warning signs of deterioration were observed but not acted upon. In this episode, Jack shares how they overcame the defense’s attempt to label the client as “already broken,” using real-world evidence to show the difference between manageable prior pain and catastrophic injury, and offering practical trial insights attorneys can apply to their own medical malpractice cases.
