Standly Hamilton Secures $20M Verdict Against Plano Doctor

A Dallas jury unanimously awarded $19.7 million to the family of a deceased hospital worker who was left brain-dead under her doctor’s care while undergoing treatment for a rare nervous system condition.

After less than three hours of deliberation, the six-person jury found Dr. Jennifer Marye Burris and her employer, Acute Surgical Care Specialists, liable for the death of 29-year-old Katina Clark, who left behind a husband and two young children.
