Congratulations on the defendant’s verdict. It’s a credit the way you handled the trial to win this one (and I hope to me also) since there was a high potential for a plaintiff’s verdict in this case. I must say I was slightly skeptical when we first discussed this case a while back but as we prepared, my hope for us prevailing increased every minute. It was a good move to just play it straight without any exaggeration.
I have long wanted to express my gratitude for your ceaseless efforts on my behalf regardless of the outcome. And now that you have literally handed over a double victory in rapid fashion, I can only say I am overwhelmed. You are a great lawyer. You actually made this as pleasant as humanly possible. You imparted a sense of confidence and balance that allowed me to get through this thing. So thank you Lou.
Louis E. Jakub, Jr. represented me in the above malpractice suit. It is my pleasure to write this letter informing you of his professionalism and preparedness in his representation of me. Mr. Jakub’s understanding of the medical subject and clarity of thought resulted in a defendant’s verdict in plaintiff’s territory. I would appreciate your sharing my positive experience with PRI executives and Mr. Jakub.
I was recently defended in the above named lawsuit by Louis E. Jakub, Jr. Throughout the pretrial proceeding, Mr. Jakub was patient and professional, keeping me apprised as pretrial motions went on, and keeping me calm through over six delays over two months. Throughout this time he was flexible. He was willing to meet with me after my office hours to cause the least disruption to my practice.
Once the jury was selected he made plenty of time to prepare me for the full spectrum of questions that the plaintiff’s attorney might throw at me. He was able to clearly explain common plaintiff attorneys maneuvers and prevented me from making statements that that could be manipulated later to make me seem incompetent or dishonest.
He was also very knowledgeable about the medicine surrounding colon cancer, anal cancer, screening tests and complications of chemotherapy. He was familiar with how real offices run and how this practical information would strengthen my defense.
Throughout the process Mr. Jakub treated our work as teamwork. He would patiently listen to every idea that I had about how to present myself or my care to the court. He graciously pointed out which ideas which ideas were more likely to backfire and he expanded on ideas that he thought were worthy. His inclusive style was reassuring. He made me feel like I was playing a role in my defense and I think this increased my confidence and helped me perform on the witness stand.
The whole experience I would have gladly missed, but I did appreciate having such an excellent representative in my corner.
