This handbook is a compilation of papers presented at Mealey's Fen-Phen Trial Strategies Conference, March 1999. The handbook provides trial lawyers with the legal, scientific and medical information needed to lay the groundwork for a successful fen-phen case. A unique panel of physicians and expert litigators who have prepared their own fen-phen cases give practical advice and analysis of issues like: proving liability in valve and PPH cases, the punitive damage claim, defending malpractice actions, potential defendants, discovery in state and federal courts, cardiology, the viability of neurotoxicity claims, and more.
