Now that COVID-19 is behind us and the unprecedented public support for healthcare providers has waned, it is anticipated that physicians and nurses will again become malpractice defendants to a remarkable degree. In fact, the post-COVID-19 surge in lawsuits against medical and nursing professionals is likely to continue for the foreseeable future.

Presented here is a comprehensive review of what a newly named defendant can expect as well as how best to assist in the matter's defense from inception through trial. This book will provide an education about the litigation process and help the defendant succeed under difficult circumstances. Ultimately, it will serve as a source of strength when feelings of weakness, doubt, frustration, and anger surface.
