Improper Emergency Room Treatment - $3,100,000 Settlement
Reached on eve of trial against the hospital where our 16 year old client was taken after being hit by a motor vehicle while riding his bicycle. We asserted that he suffered from permanent brain damage as a result of the failure to timely diagnose and treat the head trauma he suffered in the accident.
Improper Treatment of Elbow Fracture - $2,000,000 Verdict
In favor of our client, who sustained a simple fracture of his elbow following a fall. He sought treatment from the defendant orthopedist who, rather than cast the arm, simply splinted the plaintiff's elbow. As a result, there was a non-union of the elbow, which resulted in a disfiguring mal-alignment. The jury agreed that the doctor's failure to follow up closely with the client resulted in the deformity and it unanimously found in his favor.
Failure to Treat Vascular Condition - $3,250,000 Settlement
Obtained on eve of trial for our client, a 16-year old infant, with a below the knee amputation. The client sustained a broken ankle while playing football. The hospital failed to recognize the symptoms of vascular compromise and perform a prompt surgical procedure, resulting in the loss of the infant's leg.
Failure to Monitor Newborn - $2,500,000 Settlement
Obtained immediately before trial in the Court of Claims for our client, an infant, who lost her foot as a result of repeated IV infiltrations from the placement of IVs in her ankle.
