Anesthesia Injury
Most often during surgery, a patient will be administered anesthesia to either mask the pain locally, or to render the patient unconscious during the procedure. When unconscious, the anesthesiologist and/or nurses are usually responsible for ensuring that the patient is positioned in a manner that does not cut off blood flow to arms and legs. Negligent anesthesia cases often involve death, brain injury, neurological issues (e.g., a damaged spinal cord from epidural injections), headaches, back pain that radiates, or a"dropped" foot or impaired limb. Injuries also occur often when a breathing tube is being placed in a patient's trachea. The result in all of these instances is obviously disastrous.
Over his career, Mark has developed and cultivated relationships which expert physicians in almost every specialty imaginable all over the country, from the very finest ivy league medical schools to the most respected hospitals, from coast to coast, who are willing to review potential medical malpractice cases and testify in a victim's favor where the facts warrant.
Medical malpractice litigation is difficult - jurors often start out believing that a victim should not be compensated because doctors don't intend to cause harm. Of course, that is not the law, any more than it would be fair to not hold a previously perfect driver responsible for his actions if he inadvertently runs a red light and injures a pedestrian. Mark personally handles your medical malpractice case - by knowing you and understanding your plight, we are better able to communicate the justness of your cause and the severity of the injury that you so needlessly suffered to a jury, or to insurance company representatives at a mediation.
Because we have been successful in the past, we have the resources to fight the fight the way it needs to be fought. If you seek responsible, caring, and yet tenacious lawyers to fight for you, we'd like to help. Our track record proves that we can.
