Jake Winfrey won a defense verdict on behalf of a general surgeon in a medical malpractice case arising from a gall bladder removal surgery. The plaintiff’s common bile duct was unintentionally cut during the surgery, requiring extensive bowel reconstruction and multiple hospitalizations. The plaintiff claimed that the surgeon negligently misidentified the common bile duct, but the evidence did not support the plaintiff’s claims and the verdict was for the defendant.
