Doctors and Litigation: The L Word

Conversation With a Plaintiff's Attorney: Finding Common Ground


Listen Later

In this episode (the last of Season Two), Dr. Pensa  sits down to speak with a plaintiff's attorney.

However, her guest, Chad Englehardt, is not your average plaintiff's attorney. Chad is a highly lauded attorney, law professor, and advocate of Rick Boothman's Michigan Model (for more on that, listen to Episode 13 of Season Two.

We talk extensively about CRP (Communication - Resolution) programs, patient safety, and the dysfunction of our current legal system, which re-traumatizes patients and clinicians alike. If the first rule of medicine is 'First, do no harm,' then he feels the second rule in medicine, and the first in law, should be: "Do no further harm."

We also talk a bit about third party investors and litigation funding (which we have not yet covered in the podcast, but is of great importance...we'll revisit it!)

During the course of our conversation, Mr. Englehardt mentions two books:

  • "Win - Win" by Rebecca Sposita, Esq
  • "Gain Without Pain" by Greg Hammer, MD
  • You can reach Chad via email at [email protected]

    We'll be back in a few months with the start of Season Three!
