We hired Mr. Stopper for what we thought was a hopeless case and he completely came through! He kept us well informed, helped with all medical claims, answered any questions and was very sympathetic. We would definitely use him again but hope we will never have to!

Looking for a lawyer is like trying to find an honest car salesperson. Hard to find! Mr. Stopper was recommended to me by another law firm that said he would have the expertise to handle my car accident case. From our first conversation, he told me to have "Faith" and that's what I did. He worked effortlessly and diligently to ensure I was awarded what I rightfully deserved due to my injuries. Him and his team was informative and walked me through the process along with periodic updates. He provided an outstanding service to the point he knew what was best for me and my case! I can return back to rehab and move forward with the next chapter in my life. Thank you for all that you have done!

I hired Stopper Lopez to help me with a personal injury matter. Their office was very helpful and got me an appointment very fast. I met with Attorney Will Stopper and he explained the legal process to me. Also, he helped me fill out all the necessary paperwork. His office was very efficient and answered all my questions. I would highly recommend giving Stopper Lopez a call if you need legal advice.

I was very pleased with Justin Cohen as my worker's comp attorney. Justin was very attentive, displayed passion, and a desire to have the best possible outcome for my case. He responds to email in a very efficient and timely manner. Furthermore, he nearly double the amount I was initially supposed to receive for my settlement! Also, he added stipulations into my settlement that greatly exceeded my expectations.. I would definitely recommend Justin and the Office of Adam Kotlar to anyone who needs a worker's compensation attorney who is extremely knowledgeable and compassionate for their clients needs.

I trust Mr. Weiss. Something that I can't say about many attorneys. He is extremely knowledgeable about medical malpractice cases. I wish he kept me better informed about the status of my case but realize it is a very long process without much to report a lot of the time. I would recommend him without any reservation.

In 2002, my wife was returning to work from lunch, and was rear ended by a car doing 45 miles an hour, and our lives changed forever. At that time, she was managing a law office in South Jersey, and her boss, a personal injury lawyer, was in the process of relocating. She then had the opportunity to interview almost 30 Lawyers to handle HER case. Within a minute she knew that Lou was the man to handle her life changing case.
Four years, and two spinal reconstructions later, the case was successfully completed. The award was very substantial, and helped tremendously.
Although my wife's life is irrevocably changed forever, it was Lou De Voto the MAN that made this terrible time bearable. Lou never failed to answer our calls, keep us updated, and always showed true compassion.
But even more is that Lou knew the continually changing landscape of judicial trends, such as public sentiment as it related to jury decisions, and in which geographical areas these sentiments affected judgments. In short, Lou knew his business inside and out.
I have since referred well over a dozen clients to Lou, and all have walked away completely satisfied. I recommend Lou with absolutely no reservations, and will continue to refer people who only want the best representation for their own sudden life changing injuries.
Not only is Lou DeVoto the kind of Attorney you want, but that Lou DeVoto is the kind of man you want to represent you in your time of need.

Mr. Rossetti has handled multiple cases on my behalf, with excellent results each time. He is extremely professional and knowledgeable. He always promptly returned my phone calls, and answered any and all questions I had. He kept me updated regularly. His staff is also very responsive, polite and helpful. Mr. Rossetti is very honest and ethical. I know several lawyers throughout New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and all speak extremely positively about Mr. Rossetti's skills, and the results he has obtained over the years. I can't thank Mr. Rossetti enough for the help he has provided me over the years. I would highly recommend him in the event of personal injuries from an accident.

Mr.Talbot is someone who you can depend on to be prepared and on top of things. Mr. Talbot also displays a great one on one relationship with his clients, and unlike many other lawyers out there Mr.Talbot will tell you the truth and not just what you want to hear. All in all Mr. Talbot did a great job on my case and I highly recommend him to anyone that wants a great lawyer.

I have known Dan Snyder for over 15 years, both as an attorney, peer and friend. No one works harder to achieve the best possible results for their clients. As a wonderful family man, he knows how important it is to get his clients the justice and compensation they deserve to make life for them, and their families easier. Perhaps the greatest testimonial I can give another attorney is to refer people I care about to them--which I have done with Dan. If you are injured and are in need of an honest, hard-working, determined attorney to fight for you....look no further.

Mr. Zorowitz represented me in a ugly child support case (he had my child support reduced by 85%!!) that several 'high profile' Haddonfield NJ attorneys (I spent OVER, YES, OVER $100,000 on Haddonfield NJ attorneys!!) and YEARS in and out of the Camden County Courts .
Mr. Zorowitz is nothing but a true genius! He was happy to answer all of my emails and calls and did a thorough job of not only representing me but had a complete understanding of my case.
Trust me, there aren't many attorneys in the US who treat you like that.
Mr. Zorowitz was not cheap, but reasonable. No where near the money I had wasted in the past on 'high profile' Haddonfield NJ attorneys.
There was no BS when it came time to be in front of the judge, just the facts were presented.
In fact Mr. Zorowitz CORRECTED the judge on several topics!!!!!! WOW! Now that's an attorney who's no afraid to be heard!
I only wish I could leave my name or email for who ever is reading this post. But this site won't allow it.
Good luck to finding a better attorney than Mr. Zorowitz.

What a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Can Do for You
A medical malpractice lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been harmed due to the negligence or misconduct of healthcare professionals, such as doctors, nurses, or hospitals. These lawyers assist in cases where a healthcare provider deviates from the accepted standard of care, resulting in injury or death. Medical malpractice cases can involve misdiagnosis, surgical errors, medication mistakes, birth injuries, and other forms of medical negligence.
If you or a loved one has suffered harm due to improper medical treatment, a medical malpractice lawyer can help you understand your legal options, file a lawsuit, and pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, and other damages.
When Should I Hire a Medical Malpractice Lawyer?
Hiring a medical malpractice lawyer is essential if you’ve been seriously injured due to the negligence of a healthcare provider or institution. Situations where you should seek legal representation include:
- Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis: If a doctor fails to diagnose or delays diagnosing a medical condition, leading to harm or progression of the illness.
- Surgical errors: Harm resulting from surgical mistakes such as operating on the wrong site, leaving instruments inside the body, or performing unnecessary procedures.
- Medication errors: Injuries caused by prescribing the wrong medication or dosage, or mistakes made by pharmacists in dispensing drugs.
- Birth injuries: Injuries to a newborn due to medical negligence during labor and delivery, such as failing to perform a timely C-section or improper use of delivery instruments.
- Anesthesia errors: Complications arising from improperly administered anesthesia, which can lead to serious injury or death.
- Inadequate follow-up or aftercare: Suffering due to lack of proper monitoring or care after a medical procedure, leading to complications.
- Hospital or nursing home negligence: Harm caused by the negligence of hospital staff, nurses, or administrators who failed to provide adequate care.
Medical malpractice cases are complex, and hiring a lawyer early can help ensure your rights are protected and your case is handled effectively.
What Does a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Do?
A medical malpractice lawyer provides various legal services to help injured patients hold negligent healthcare providers accountable. Their responsibilities include:
- Evaluating your case: Reviewing medical records and consulting with experts to determine if you have a viable claim based on the standard of care and harm suffered.
- Filing a lawsuit: Initiating legal action by filing a complaint against the responsible parties in the appropriate court.
- Gathering evidence: Collecting medical records, expert testimonies, and other relevant evidence to build a strong case.
- Negotiating with insurance companies: Working to secure a fair settlement that compensates you for your injuries without the need for a trial.
- Litigating in court: Representing you during trial proceedings if a settlement cannot be reached, presenting evidence and arguing your case.
- Calculating damages: Assessing the full extent of your losses, including medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and future care needs.
- Handling expert testimony: Coordinating with medical experts who can testify on how the standard of care was breached and how it led to your injuries.
How Are Medical Malpractice Lawyers Paid?
Most medical malpractice lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, which means they only get paid if they recover compensation for you. Key aspects of this payment structure include:
- Contingency fee percentage: The lawyer's fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the settlement or award.
- No upfront costs: You do not pay any legal fees unless the lawyer successfully recovers compensation on your behalf.
- Case expenses: Costs for expert witnesses, medical record retrieval, and court fees may be deducted from your settlement or award in addition to the lawyer's fee.
Always discuss the fee arrangement during your initial consultation to understand your financial obligations.
How Much Does a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a medical malpractice lawyer is usually based on a contingency fee model. General estimates include:
- Contingency fee: Lawyers typically charge between 25% and 40% of the total recovery amount.
- Case expenses: Additional costs such as expert witness fees and court expenses can range from $5,000 to $50,000 or more, depending on the case complexity.
Ensure you receive a clear explanation of all potential fees and expenses before proceeding with your case.
Top Questions to Ask a Medical Malpractice Lawyer
Before hiring a medical malpractice lawyer, consider asking the following questions:
-
What experience do you have with medical malpractice cases like mine?
Confirm the lawyer has a successful track record with similar cases. -
How do you charge for your services?
Understand the contingency fee percentage and any additional costs you may incur. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Seek an honest assessment of your case's strengths and potential challenges. -
How long will the process take?
Get an estimate of the timeline for settling or taking the case to trial. -
Will you handle my case personally?
Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement. -
Have you worked with expert witnesses?
Verify the lawyer's experience in collaborating with medical experts essential for your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Medical Malpractice Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable lawyer, take the following steps:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association for their license and any disciplinary actions.
- Review their experience: Look for specialization in medical malpractice and a history of successful cases.
- Read client reviews: Consult platforms like Avvo or Martindale-Hubbell for testimonials and ratings.
- Ask for references: Request contact information of previous clients willing to discuss their experience.
- Check professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) indicates a commitment to the field.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To maximize the effectiveness of your initial meeting, bring the following:
- Medical records: All documents related to your treatment and injury.
- Evidence of harm: Photos, medical bills, and records of lost wages.
- Communication records: Any correspondence with healthcare providers or institutions.
- List of healthcare providers: Names and contact information of all involved medical personnel.
- Questions for the lawyer: A prepared list to address all your concerns.
- Timeline of events: A detailed chronology of your medical care and the issues encountered.
Being well-prepared helps the lawyer assess your case accurately and advise you on the best course of action.
