Monfort and Benfield Secure Trial Victory

Renee Monfort and Mark Benfield recently secured a trial victory on behalf of an interventional radiology group. The case involved allegations of negligence against numerous healthcare providers; generally, the plaintiff alleged failure to monitor the patient post-biopsy and failure to perform interventions to address signs of hemodynamic instability. The plaintiff further alleged these failures caused the patient’s death. On the eleventh day of a jury trial in Peoria County, Renee and Mark obtained a directed verdict based on trial testimony elicited from the plaintiff’s retained expert. A multimillion-dollar verdict was entered against the remaining codefendants the following day.
