1 Since 1950 Summer, Vol. XXXI $22 Million Verdict in Birth Trauma Case Geoffrey Fieger announced that on March 21, a jury in the courtroom of Wayne County Circuit Court Judge Robert Ziolkowski rendered a $22 million verdict against the Detroit Medical Center and Hutzel Hospital for brain injuries suffered at birth by Chelsie Barker, age 15, of Detroit. It is believed to be the largest verdict this year. Hutzel Hospital sent Chelsie s mother, a Wayne County Jail detainee, out of the hospital despite the fact that she was in labor and about to give birth. The hospital ordered that she be sent back to jail in the middle of the night. Chelsie was born within an hour on the jail floor, but not before she suffered severe brain injuries. The testimony at trial showed that Chelsie s mom was dumped out of the hospital because a resident did not like that she was dressed in jail garb, Fieger said. Throughout the trial, Hutzel Hospital Geoffrey Fieger and its attorneys tried to blame the Wayne County Jail for its own malpractice. Hutzel s behavior at that time, and during trial, was reprehensible. Chelsie previously received a settlement from Wayne County of $8 million for a civil rights action that was filed on her behalf by Geoffrey in the United States Federal District Court. At trial, Chelsie was represented by Geoffrey Fieger. Birth Injury Verdicts and Settlements Fieger Law has won some of the largest birth trauma verdicts in the nation. $144 Million: Michigan $18.6 Million: Michigan $24 Million: Pennsylvania $30 Million: Ohio $30 Million: South Carolina $17 Million: West Virginia $8 Million: Mississippi $11 Million: Illinois Could your child s cerebral palsy or birth injury have been prevented?

3 E. Jason Blankenship Legal Boxer Estate of Senior Pilot Alleges Negligence in the Air Fieger Law Attorney Geoffrey Fieger with the assistance of E. Jason Blankenship reached a $7.5 million settlement in a general negligence action against a co-pilot of a private aviation company involving a plane crash that led to the death of a senior pilot. Plaintiffs alleged that the plane crash was caused by the negligence of co-defendant junior pilot, who inadvertently stalled the aircraft, and then fought with the senior pilot for control of the aircraft. Plaintiffs asserted that the junior pilot had not been trained properly. The senior pilot suffered third-degree burns across 40 percent of his body. He died after spending two weeks in a burn unit in excruciating pain. Defendents argued that the accident was caused by the senior pilot. Michigan Lawyers Weekly The Conviction of Jack Kevorkian Geoffrey Fieger was featured prominently in an episode of the BBC World Service radio program Witness that aired March 27. In the program, which spotlights history as told by the people who were there, Fieger shared insights on his longtime client and assisted-suicide advocate Dr. Jack Kevorkian. Fieger defended Kevorkian through seven trials as prosecutors in Michigan tried to charge him with murder. In his eighth trial, Kevorkian broke from Fieger and insisted on representing himself. He was sentenced to years in prison, was released in 2007, and died in History will look very favorably on [Kevorkian] and very unfavorably on what they did to him, so in the end although it s little salve for the fact that he lost the last nine years of his life, he lost that battle but he will have won the war, Fieger says in the program.

5 Fair and Just QUESTIONNAIRE situations but hope also has a way of keeping people immobilized when they might be much better off taking action. On what occasion do you lie? When it s obvious and I can laugh while I m doing it. Which living person do you most dislike? It s difficult to dislike someone you don t know, and everyone I come to know has at least one endearing thing about them that makes it impossible to dislike them. Now if you want to talk about behaviors Which talent would you most like to have? To speak any language fluently or master the piano. It s clear I am essentially too lazy to do either.

A superpower energy to go strong 22 hours a day without sleep and never be tired or grumpy. There is just so much I want to do. Suzen Oliver Artist, Handwriting Analyst, Jury Consultant Jury Consultant Suzen Oliver has been part of the Fieger Law team since the first Oakland County trial of Jack Kevorkian almost 20 years ago. She was led to the firm through her unique use of handwriting analysis in the courtroom to evaluate personality traits and identify forgery. Here, the artist and mom shares insights on truffle pasta, the State of Curiosity and Hope with a capital H. What is your favorite color? Red-orange. It s the color of life, zeal and enthusiasm.

Casa Della Grande, just outside of Fiorenze. I still dream about the homemade Truffle Pasta. Who is your favorite Detroit celebrity? Gilda Radner and Lily Tomlin.

A belief that they are essentially better than someone else. What s your greatest extravagance? Time (and too much money) in my garden. What do you consider the most overrated virtue? Hope.

If you were a speech part, what would you be? A verb. If you were a car, what kind would you be? A red-orange (of course) Audi TT. If you were food, what kind would you be?
