Kaitlin Rosenthal and Mindy McLaughlin, along with appellate counsel, Dinah Stein, secured a major appellate win in the Fifth District Court of Appeals, which reversed the trial court’s denial of our clients’ motion to dismiss in a wrongful death medical malpractice action and remanded with instructions to dismiss three counts outright. The Court held that the plaintiff failed to provide the presuit notice required by Chapter 766, where the corroborating affidavit addressed only the alleged clinical negligence of the physician and did not support claims for lack of informed consent or direct negligence against the practice. This decisive ruling reinforces Florida’s strict presuit screening safeguards and curbs efforts to expand malpractice claims beyond what was properly vetted before suit.
