Ed Walsh Addresses Illinois Trial Lawyers at the 2009 Annual "Update and Review" Seminar

 

             The Illinois Trial Lawyers Association presents an annual October seminar in Chicago to provide its members with an update and review of major developments in Illinois trial practice. This year the Association invited Ed Walsh to share his expertise and experience on the specialized practice area of medical malpractice.

            Ed provided those trial lawyers in attendance with an update of the significant medical malpractice appellate court decisions issued in 2009. Most importantly, he also provided his fellow ITLA members with guidance and recommendations on the benefits and advantages of including doctors and hospitals as “respondents in discovery” in medical malpractice lawsuits.

            Ed and his partners at Walsh, Knippen, Knight & Pollock, Chtd. take great pride in sharing their expertise and experience with their professional colleagues. Ed’s written paper entitled “Expediting Discovery & Accelerating Your Case: Divide and Conquer the Defendants With Section 2-402” is provided here for your review.
