A Walker County jury returned a verdict of $3 million against a physician who was alleged to have engaged in a sexual relationship with the Plaintiff and prescribed him pain medication that ultimately led to a long battle with addiction. The Plaintiff’s lawyer, Garve Ivey, Jr. believes the verdict indicates that area citizens are tired of the negative impacts of recklessly prescribed drugs, especially when those prescriptions result in addiction. Ivey noted that his filing of more than a dozen cases against local doctors was not an indictment on the medical community at large and that only a handful of doctors in Walker County are guilty of such charges.
