Notable Cases Handled

Gary represented Terri and Michael Schiavo in the medical malpractice trial arising out of events that led to Terri's coma. The jury returned a substantial verdict for Terri and Michael; the proceeds of that recovery led to the rift between Michael and Terri's family and international publicity.

• Boxing champion Floyd Mayweather
• Hall of Fame baseball player Eddie Mathews
• All-Pro NFL cornerback Samari Rolle

Recently, Gary and Stephen Cain tried to verdict Mr. Rolle's case in Charlotte, North Carolina. The jury returned a verdict in Mr. Rolle's favor. It was the first time in 12 years a jury in Charlotte had returned a verdict for a patient in a medical malpractice case. Gary also represented Jane Doe, a rape victim, in the case against Carnival Cruise Lines that became the subject of national publicity when Carnival was required by court order to disclose the data surrounding the number of sexual assaults occurring aboard its ships.
