Focus Areas
Experience
- Represented several health care and other trade associations in Ohio as amici curiae in support of the prevailing parties in two Ohio Supreme Court cases:
- In the first case, the Court held that the plaintiff couldn’t succeed on her chiropractic malpractice claim against the chiropractor’s employer under the respondeat superior doctrine because the statute of limitations extinguished the chiropractor’s direct liability for the alleged malpractice.
- In the second case, the Court held that the plaintiff couldn’t recover damages from a hospital for negligently credentialing the defendant physician unless and until either a judge or jury determined that the defendant physician committed malpractice or the defendant physician admitted the allegations of malpractice.
- Earned a substantial victory on behalf of multiple health care clients and a statewide association of hospitals after the court rendered a decision declaring a price transparency law unconstitutional. This final victory came over three years after the court granted a temporary restraining order against the enforcement of the law, allowing Victoria’s clients to litigate its merit.
- Assisted a large health system with the system-wide implementation of an electronic health records (EHR) system, ensuring legal and regulatory compliance, HIPAA security, and continuity of patient care.
- Obtained a complete defense verdict for a hospital system, resolving a complicated multi-party seven-year dispute.
- Represented a national insurance carrier in response to agent lawsuits across the country.
