Georgia Upholds Medical Malpractice Changes

The Georgia Supreme Court upheld a part of a law that is making it more difficult for patients to win medical malpractice cases involving emergency health care providers. The court also ruled on another matter that will allow one side in a lawsuit to pay the other side’s legal fees in some cases, which some believe that this will discourage many victims from bringing legitimate claims to court.
