New York Surgical Malpractice Attorneys

Our firm provides the highest level of legal expertise for surgical malpractice cases in New York. Our Medical Malpractice attorneys represents individuals and families of those injured or killed as a result of negligence committed in hospitals, by physicians and other health care providers. We handle cases involving birth injuries, delay in diagnosis of cancer, doctor and hospital malpractice, surgical errors, surgical malpractice and strokes.

Our firm handles a relatively small number of cases, which allows us to concentrate our efforts on each case. Many of our clients have sustained catastrophic injuries and will require support for the rest of their lives. We also handle cases on behalf of families whose loved ones have died wrongfully as a result of surgical malpractice. In one case our firm obtained an $8.5 million verdict for a 62 year-old man who suffered a stroke following a delay in surgery and discontinuance of his prescription of Heparin, a drug that prevents blood clotting. Following his stroke, which could have been avoided with timely surgery, the plaintiff was confined to a wheelchair and was left virtually unable to speak. With the subsequent settlement proceeds, the plaintiff bought a new home designed and equipped specifically to enable him to care for himself. This was one of the largest medical malpractice verdicts ever in Westchester County.
