Jordan v. Baptist Three Rivers

N/A

OUTCOME:

JORDAN V. BAPTIST THREE RIVERS Wrongful Death / Medical Malpractice When her mother tragically passed away because of the carelessness of a hospital and its doctors, Martha Jordan called our firm f ... or help. At that time, children were unable to recover damages for the loss of their parents’ companionship and affection in Tennessee. We fought to change the law so that Ms. Jordan could recover damages for the loss of her mother’s emotional support. Because of this case, plaintiffs who’ve lost a parent can recover the “intangible benefits” they would have received from the deceased parent.
