Case Details
In a groundbreaking case with considerable national interest, we resolved a case on behalf of the family of a 91-year-old woman whose end of life wishes were not honored during her admission at a local hospital. Despite having a written Advance Directive for Health Care that prohibited heroic measures to prolong her life, the medical providers ignored those instructions and proceeded with the unwanted medical treatment and surgery.
Additional Notes
Our lawyers felt strongly about the case and fought hard, including successful trips to both the Georgia Court of Appeals and the Georgia Supreme Court. Shortly before trial, the case settled for $1 Million.
