VERDICTS & SETTLEMENTS
$19,200,000 jury verdict awarded in the Bronx County Supreme Court on behalf of a 53 year-old male who developed paraplegia due to the defendant not timely diagnosing and treating his spinal abscess which resulted in permanent neurological injury. During the trial we proved that the defendant did not order a MRI of the correct portion of plaintiff's spine. As a result, he suffered permanent damage to his spinal cord causing paralysis that confined plaintiff to a residential facility where he was wheelchair bound. If not for the verdict, providing him with financial independence to provide for his family and his medical needs, plaintiff would have remained in the facility for the rest of his life.
$3,100,000 jury verdict in Nassau County Supreme Court against a cardiology group located in Rockville Centre whose negligence caused the wrongful death of a 40 year-old husband and father of two. At trial it was proved that the cardiologist failed to order repeat nuclear stress test despite warning signs that the patient was at risk for a heart attack. The defense argued that further testing was unnecessary since plaintiff had cardiac testing two years earlier. However we proved it was wrong of the defendants to rely upon outdated test results. The recovery obtained was for the financial loss sustained by the widow and their two children which included an amount for each child from the loss of parental care and guidance due to their father's death.
$2,450,000 was awarded by a jury after a four week medical malpractice wrongful death trial in which the defendants failed to diagnose and treat a coronary artery disease in a 48 year-old working husband and father. At trial we proved that even though plaintiff had a medical history that increased his risk for cardiac disease, that very fact put the defendants on notice that regular cardiac testing was required otherwise subtle findings could go undetected. When findings from a stress test showed that plaintiff had blocked coronary arteries, time was of the essence in treating him with medications and surgery yet neither treatment was provided. Months later as the plaintiff unknowingly vacationed with his family on the Cayman Islands, he was overcome by a massive heart attack. After countless medical witnesses testified at trial, we showed that this man's death was preventable if the defendants properly interpreted the stress test and implemented treatment before it was too late. The jury awarded economic damages for the wrongful death to the widow and three children.
$2,200,000 jury verdict in Suffolk County Supreme Court in a medical malpractice case against a primary care physician who failed to refer the plaintiff to a urologist resulting in a delay in diagnosing prostate cancer in a 57 year-old man. Despite abnormal test results and blood in his urine a prostate biopsy was never recommended until the cancer had advanced to an incurable stage. The jury disregarded the defense claim that because defendant was a primary care physician he should not be held to the standards of a urological specialist in diagnosing prostate cancer. Instead we convinced the jury that since the defendant never referred plaintiff to a urologist, but chose to treat him on his own for urological conditions, then defendant should not be held to a lesser standard than a specialist. The plaintiff suffered as he deteriorated for two years before his death. He was survived by his widow and two sons.
