Larson • King trial attorneys successfully defend RSD/CRPS claim

Larson • King trial attorneys Mark Solheim and Tony Novak recently successfully defended a Fortune 250 company in a claim involving Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (n/k/a Complex Regional Pain Syndrome). The plaintiff, a 32 year old mother, sustained a fractured patella in the accident but soon thereafter developed skin mottling, temperature differences and hair growth changes in her lower extremity. Plaintiff was subsequently diagnosed by her treating physicians, including the Mayo Clinic, with RSD/CRPS. As a result, plaintiff alleged that she was permanently injured and unable to be gainfully employed. Plaintiff sought economic loss in excess of $2,000,000 and $1,000,000 in non-economic damages. With the assistance of experts (a medical doctor and a neuropyschologist that helped author the AMA guidelines), attorneys Solheim and Novak successfully defended the claim.
