but outcome was terrible,
which part is "terrible"?
i've been in cases with great damages but iffy liability where the defendant got out via MSJ, and 1 case with no issue of liability where we got 0'd (well i wasn't there for the 0, but i heard about it).

quote:e.g., A patient is determined to have a home delivery assisted by a doula. She labors for 20 hours at home unsuccessfully with the doula compressing her abdomen to "assist" delivery. She finally decides to come to the hospital where a C-section is urgently performed. The infant is badly brain-damaged.
which part is "terrible"?
The patient hires a personal injury attorney. He in turn seeks his big money "opportunity" by going after the hospital and physicians instead of identifying the painfully obvious sources of fault: the doula . . . and the patient herself.
It is an obscene system.

Doesn't Europe use a loser pays system? If so, does anyone know how their judicial system operates compared to ours?
