The Holidays are almost here! So, this month on ‘Inside Medical Malpractice’ we’re taking a break from talking about the 5 most common litigation issues, to bring you a story about the birth of a beautiful baby boy. In this episode, Chris Rokosh welcomes back Maia Tomljanovic. Her 2020 podcast ‘A Medical Malpractice Lawyer Has a Baby’ was, and still is, one of the top 5 downloaded episodes of all time. It’s not only a great story with a happy ending, but a personal, insightful, and inspiring story about how the combination of medical and legal knowledge shaped Maia’s hopes, fears, and expectations. Well, in the spring of 2022, Maia welcomed another baby boy. There was another set of complicated circumstances. But luckily, another happy ending. So, I invited her back to share this new story, and tell her my small (but exciting!) part in it. With 2 more years down the road of experience as a mother, a patient, and a malpractice lawyer, Maia tells how she used the knowledge she learned from her first baby and shares some shining moments by the doctors and nurses who cared for her. Maia also offers her perspective on the most important thing we should all know about malpractice. Don’t miss this episode. It’s a great one!
