MOUNT LAUREL, NEW JERSEY – MEDICAL EXPERTS AND RECORDS SEMINAR
MEDICAL EXPERTS AND RECORDS SEMINAR
On June 18, 2014 I will be part of a distinguished panel of experienced litigators addressing Medical Experts and Records for the National Business Institute. This is a full day program offering 7.2 NJ CLE credits including 1.2 ethics/professionalism credits. I will be handling the Ethics and Experts aspect of the program. You often hear of “spoliation” of records – but most often in the context of a large commercial litigation matter like the recent Apple v Samsung litigation in which both parties were subject to an “adverse inference” charge – but spoliation occurs in the everyday cases we all handle. I’ll talk about how to avoid, it, how to recognize it, and why who does it and when it is discovered determines the remedies for it. I’ll also discuss how to maintain confidentiality and privilege in your communications with medical experts, how to protect your work-product, and when the attorney–client privilege is waived in regard to information shared with your expert. I’ll also talk about avoiding ethical trouble in how you agree to compensate your expert witness and how to avoid conflicts of interest in being the middleman between your client and their (unpaid) treating physicians or experts; an important everyday concern. I look forward to seeing you on June 18th. Robert Dennis, M.D., P.A. will be the moderator and I’ll be joined by Edward Capozzi, Esq., L. Patricia Sampoli, Esq., and Jeffrey M. Keiser, Esq. as faculty members.

APPELLATE DIVISION UPHOLDS MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR JUDGMENT IN MMA FIGHTER’S SHED RX CONTAMINATION CASE.
Cockerill, Craig & Moore, LLC partner Jeffrey S. Craig worked with Howard Jacobs to vindicate and obtain compensation for Yoel Romero whose rise in MMC rankings was detoured by contamination of a Gold Star supplement he took as part of his training regimen. Gold Star’s SHED RX product was contaminated with a banned substance causing Romero to fail a screening. Finding that Gold Star violated New Jersey’s Consumer Fraud Act a trial court awarded a multi-million dollar judgment. The Appellate Division reviewed the judgment and upheld the trial court in part, modified one aspect of the judgment, and remanded a third category of damages for further consideration. The modified award now totals $12,450,000 with the potential for that to be increased to compensate Romero for harm to his reputation. Yoel Romero v. Gold Star Distribution, LLC d/b/a Gold Star Performance Products, A-0379-20 New Jersey Superior Court, Appellate Division decided June 24, 2020.
