We’re republishing a blog blurb that unfortunately did not have a link to the original case.  From what we can piece together, here is what happened.  Plaintiff undergoes back surgery and emerges blind in one eye and damaged in the other.  Plaintiff hires med mal attorney who sues on the theory of drug incompatibility.  Attorney loses case for lack of expert.

Plaintiff then sues attorney, arguing that this was a positioning case, and as he was lying on his stomach for hours, his eyes were physically not drug damaged,  Plaintiff wins $ 750,000 verdict.  Interestingly, the doctor gets in the act and sues attorney too.  He succeeds with an $ 80,000 settlement.  Question: how does the doctor successfully sue the attorney?
