Posted August 2010"MediVisuals brings not only first-rate illustrations that are easily understood by juries but also in-depth appreciation and knowledge about the medical aspects being conveyed."

Posted August 2010...MediVisuals created some displays for me [from my client's] brain MRIs. I ordered these last minute (5 days before trial). I am glad I did, as they really brought home our client's injury. I am pleased to report that we received an 8 million dollar verdict in rural Platte County, Missouri for a 5-year-old girl who suffered a brain injury from a seat collapse.
Thanks again to your team!

Posted July 2010"We found the exhibit HUGELY helpful. We got to the 6th day of trial (of 7) when the defense finally made a reasonable offer. When we interviewed the jurors after they were released from service, one of them commented on how useful he found that exhibit in our opening statement. We were able to use it in opening because the doctor had already testified by deposition, using that exhibit. We keep the exhibit in our conference room for others to see and appreciate."

Posted July 2010"The case went to jury trial. The plaintiff won approximately $6.5 million dollars following a 6 day trial. The case was settled for a confidential amount at a post trial mediation. I have used MediVisuals before on cases but felt that this particular one was the best that I have had at showing the nature and extent of the injuries. His orthopedic surgeon appeared live at trial and referred to the MediVisual as a visual representation of his testimony. He testified that the MediVisual fully and accurately represented the injuries and the surgery performed on the plaintiff's elbow. Job well done. I will be calling the next time I need to visually represent a complex injury for a custom board, and I have and will continue to purchase the stock images for simple case explanations."

Posted June 2010"Rob Choi, of Medivisuals…, provided me with technical support in a recent, high value, medical malpractice trial. I know that every lawyer who uses technology in the courtroom lives in fear that the technology will fail. Those concerns can detract from the trial lawyer’s presentation. Rob’s presence alleviated those fears. Rob was prompt and efficient in all of his work, and the visual presentations, including those prepared during the trial, were powerful and glitch-free. He prepared power point slides during the trial with a short turnaround time, and offered thoughtful suggestions as to the content and format of slides. I think that the visual aids were an important component in obtaining a favorable verdict, and I would not hesitate to use Rob in the future."

Posted June 2010"The case settled the week before trial for a very favorable, yet confidential, amount. The medical illustrations MediVisuals did for us were excellent. In fact, the doctor in LSUHSC in Shreveport requested a copy (8.5 x 11 print) to use for teaching at her class regarding the treatment of burn victims. While the costs for such services was not cheap, my partner, Sid Hardy, and I felt that the money was well worth it for the services we obtained from MediVisuals. Your team went above and beyond, even expediting the graphic work and overnighting the boards to us in time for our trial depositions. Thanks again. We look forward to working with you all again in the future."

Posted June 2010"I wanted to tell you, as well as anyone seeking a medical illustrator, how pleased I was with the illustrations you recently provided our firm. We represented a lady whose injury was described by the insurance adjuster as simply a "broken arm". Your medical illustrations were invaluable in enabling us to convince the other parties of the severity of the injury and the scope of problems suffered by our client. I would describe the services you provided with three (3) words: Professional, Prompt and Persuasive. The quality of your work was unsurpassed and your staff worked closely with us to ensure their delivery in a timely manner. The illustrations were a critical component in enabling us to attain a high six-figure settlement of the case. I look forward to working with you again and I appreciate and thank you for your help."
Edwin Dunahoe, Esq.

Natchitoches, Louisiana
Posted June 2010"The medical illustrations made by your firm were a major factor in getting the defendant to offer some real money on the case, in my opinion. This was an "invisible injury," but your illustrations made it possible for her doctor to show to the defense on deposition, videotaped for the jury, and their insurance carrier just what the injury was and that it wasn't just another soft tissue injury, and that the injections were real and painful, not just "shots." Thank you for the fine work you did."

Posted June 2010"You have to invest time AND money in your exhibits and trial preparation if you want to get good results for your disabled clients. You cannot do serious personal injury cases on the cheap. You must spend the money on professional MediVisuals' medical illustrations [and other trial preparation services]."

Mr. Landau's quote was from his presentation during the Virginia Trial Lawyers Association Annual May Tort Law Seminar in Richmond, Virginia on May 4, 2010. See http://landauinjurylaw.com/ for more information.
Posted May 2010"I have hired MediVisuals several times to create animations to help explain complicated accidents and injuries. In two pending cases, the animations will be the centerpiece of my trial presentations. In a different case resolved recently, I represented a fellow who had suffered a series of serious orthopedic injuries as a result of a motor vehicle accident. In preparation for the mediation, I asked MediVisuals to create an exhibit depicting each of my clients injuries in one simple form. They created an exhibit featuring a still image of my client with graphic depictions of each of his fractures and contusions complete with close-up inset illustrations on the margins of the exhibit showing each injury in greater detail. The whole thing was mounted on 3’ x 4’ foam board and made an excellent exhibit. I had the exhibit set up at the mediation so the defense would appreciate exactly what the jury would see. The case settled very favorably.
Considering the outcome, the cost of the exhibit was negligible. Further, I have used the exhibit several times to show prospective clients how we go about proving the nature and extent of injuries. I have no doubt that clients take comfort in the fact that we have such technological resources."

Posted April 2010"The case settled in a second mediation held only last week. The exhibits, we believed, were highly effective in achieving an awesome settlement for our clients. We couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you as always for your patience and professionalism. And we look forward to working with you more in the future!"
Mark P. McMahon, Esq.

Posted April 2010"Medivisuals has been spot on in providing high quality medical art (with often quick turnaround) that has really helped me simplify complicated medical issues. Medivisuals' illustrators are very good at asking the right questions and obtaining the right medical records from the lawyer to create the most effective visual possible to help the lawyer and/or witness show the jury what happened, or the result of what happened. Every serious case deserves exhibits of the quality I have grown accustomed to from Medivisuals. I am a very satisfied customer."
Lin McCraw, Esq.

Posted March 2010These people are "pros" in every good sense of the word. They are extremely competent, proficient and diligent. Their illustrations and models are the best I have seen, and I have seen many over the years. Not only does MediVisuals produce graphics that are powerful, dramatic and riveting, but the firm is a pleasure to deal with. They go out of their way to rush materials to us when we need them on an expedited basis. I have come to consider Bob and Leah Shepherd and their staff as friends as well as colleagues, and my association with them has been professionally rewarding and personally pleasurable. No trial lawyer will go wrong using the services of MediVisuals. I recommend them without reservation.
Gary Gober, Esq.

Posted January 2010Thank you for your help with the ... medical illustration. This was a slip and fall case injuring [my client's] rotator cuff. The homeowner's carrier offered 20K to settle; the jury awarded 75K. I am sure your illustration helped the jury understand the medicine involved and played a big role in achieving the verdict we received. Thank you.

Posted January 2010"Recently, [MediVisuals provided an animation for us] involving a broken ankle case. It was a significant fracture and we wanted the insurance company to fully appreciate the severity of the injury. The animation was critical in helping the insurance company make an informed decision about resolving this case.
Our client was thrilled with the result and we found that the animation spoke to the insurance company in a way that our words simply could not."
Jason Studinski, Esq.

Posted December 2009"It is with humility and heartfelt gratitude that I, once again, thank you on behalf of an extraordinary client... Due in large measure to the talent, responsiveness, efforts, creativity, and work ethic of your extraordinary staff at MediVisuals, the jury returned a verdict ... in the amount of $44.9 million.
The MediVisuals' animation "Posterior Thoracolumbar Fusion" was nothing short of phenomenal! The treating neurosurgeon took the stand and narrated through the entirety of the animation. This was a great time of education for the jury...to truly understand the significance of the injury and the surgery. The additional medical illustrations were just perfect.
...I travel all over the country and see and hear from lots of different companies which I place in the category [of] your competitors. Frankly, I don't see them as your competitors at all because MediVisuals is the best of the best of the best - by far!
Several years ago when we began working together, I placed a great deal of trust in your firm - in your ability to provide us with quality demonstrative aids - and in knowing that you could respond as we needed things done. Our trust in MediVisuals has been and continues to be well placed."

Posted November 2009
"During a recent quick-turnaround request for a small case mediation, MediVisuals provided 30" x 40" exhibits that directly resulted in an increase in the settlement amount that was 20 to 30 times the cost of the exhibits. I just call them, briefly discuss the case, and they tell me the records they need. Then they suggest and develop exhibits that are exactly what I need. I can't recommend them highly enough."
Michael A. Ferrara, Jr., Esq.

Cherry Hill, New Jersey
Posted October 2009 Dear MediVisuals:
I wanted to let you know that we confidentially resolved [our] case. The illustrations that were prepared were excellent and helped us to achieve an excellent resolution of the case. Thank you for your time and efforts!

"I have been practicing law for 36 years, and during that time have worked with several medical illustrators. MediVisuals is by far the most professional group I have worked with. They are very responsive, and met all deadlines easily. They have a true understanding of the medicine, and apply that to the complex procedures that my clients have been through. My experts have also commented on the exceptional quality of their work. Their pricing is very competitive. I highly recommend them."
