Morrison Mahoney Partner Tory Weigand was quoted on the front page of the September 19, 2016, edition of Massachusetts Lawyer’s Weekly. Lawyer’s Weekly recognized Tory’s appellate expertise and sought his insightful commentary on a new SJC decision recognizing the continuing treatment doctrine to toll the statute of limitations in medical malpractice cases.
One portion of the story—”Med-mal attorneys assess impact of ‘Parr’“—quotes Tory as follows: “Weigand said he has a more fundamental problem with the SJC’s adoption of the continuing treatment doctrine. ‘This underestimates the sophistication of the modern-day patient or the fact that the three-year statute of limitations period is extremely generous and more than enough time to inquire and determine whether a claim exists or should be brought,’ Weigand said.”
