We hope you enjoyed the May luncheon presentation by Donald J. Schmalzbauer of Forensic Reconstruction Services on accident reconstruction.

The Annual 2010 Golf Tournament in June was lots of fun and the weather was perfect. We would like to thank all the golfers for attending and all the vendors for their sponsorships and donations.

At our next lunch seminar, on September 14, 2010, we anticipate having a speaker discuss the implications of the Minnesota Supreme Court’s Decision in Swanson v. Brewster.  That case will change the way collateral-source (under Minn. Stat. Sec. 548.251) offsets are viewed and applied in future litigation.”

Sincerely,
Mai Chanthalinh

SPEAKER: William Hart, Esq. | Partner, Meagher & Geer, P.L.L.P.

TOPIC: Explaining the Minnesota Supreme Court’s Recent Collateral – Source Offset Decision: Swanson v. Brewster.

In that decision, the Court interpreted a new question under Minnesota’s collateral-source statute, Minn. Stat. §548.251.  The Court held that a defendant can offset the amounts that a plaintiff receives via his health insurer’s negotiated discounts with medical providers.  The presentation will discuss the decision itself and how it will affect claims handling and defending your insureds.
