Frith Anderson + Peake attorneys, Walt Peake and Matt Kelley, recently earned a defense verdict in the Circuit Court for the City of Charlottesville in Virginia.  At the close of a three day trial, the jury found in favor of the estate of a deceased maternal fetal medicine specialist who the plaintiff claimed improperly inserted a suture into her bladder.  The jury heard evidence from defense experts proving that the suture was not placed in the bladder during surgery, but rather eroded over time following surgery.
