Shareholder Christopher L. Hill recently presented at lectures for the Nurse Residency Program at Tallahassee Memorial Hospital (“TMH”) concerning the litigation process. The audience was a group of nursing residency program members. TMH’s Nurse Residency Program is the only accredited nurse residency program in the region, and it bridges the gap between classroom learning and direct patient care. The participants, all new nurse graduates that were part of the year-long mandatory Nurse Residency Program at TMH, were active and engaged during the lecture, asking numerous questions regarding how litigation is handled when nursing care is involved. Christopher Hill obtained his undergraduate degree and law degree from Florida State University. Christopher L. Hill’s practice focuses on insurance defense and litigation, including medical/dental malpractice, bodily injury and under/uninsured motorist claims, auto/trucking litigation, Personal Injury Protection claims, and commercial litigation, as well as commercial Landlord-Tenant law. Christopher is licensed to practice law in Florida and Georgia and has been admitted to practice in the U.S. District Court for the Middle and Southern Districts of Florida.
