Notable cases that Mr. Fleming has served as lead counsel on include: Wert v. Weiser, et al. No. 99VS15524D (Fulton County, Georgia State Court, September 26, 2002). This was the first medical malpractice case Mr. Fleming tried as lead counsel and resulted in a $5.5 million verdict. Defendants made no offer of settlement prior to trial. Mr. Fleming's first trial as lead counsel, Wilson v. Brantley, No. 93VS7837 (Fulton County State Court, February 22, 2002) resulted in a $705,000 verdict. The last offer of settlement by defendants prior to trial was $30,000. Recently, Mr. Fleming successfully represented the founders of a small software company, in a securities fraud case in the U.S. District Court-Northern District of Georgia. Mr. Fleming's client, was an Indiana company that developed and sold computer-based practice management systems to medical offices. The defendant corporation acquired the client company in a stock-for-stock exchange. Soon after the merger (and prior to Mr. Fleming's clients being able to sell their newly acquired stock), the stock price of the acquiring company crashed. Mr. Fleming asserted claims against the acquiring company and its top management based on false and misleading statements made in the merger agreement about Defendant's financial condition and business prospects. The case settled on the eve of trial for $3,250,000.00. Prior to founding his current firm, Mr. Fleming was a partner with Evert & Weathersby, LLC in Atlanta, Georgia.
