Jury Trials Suspended; MRK Ready to Meet Changing Needs

On Monday, March 23, 2020, the chief justice of California issued an order suspending jury trials statewide for the next 60 days due to COVID-19 health restrictions. We realized this severely impacts many of our clients, and we are ready to work with your changing circumstances. We can:
- reschedule exams.
- change an exam to a record review by our physicians, which can be completed even with the trial suspension and stay-at-home orders. This can be beneficial if you have a video or telephone settlement conference or arbitration scheduled; you’ll be armed with the knowledge you need to move forward.
- schedule phone calls with the medical consultant on your case; we want you to have the most information possible as you consider your next steps in litigation.


Please contact your case manager or call the office at 916-863-7301, and we will be happy to help in any way possible.
