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.

After years of unsuccessfully trying to recover monies that were taken from me and being told that nothing could be done, in stepped Mr. Lomurro.
I am thankful beyond words for all his help.
He went above and beyond and did not stop until all of my monies were recovered.
I will forever be grateful!
Would give him a million stars if possible.

I am the managing partner of a 80+ attorney law firm not based in New Jersey. When our law firm was sued along with one of our clients in the State Courts of New Jersey I called several New Jersey lawyer friends who all said the same thing – Donald Lomurro was the right attorney for the job. I am very happy that I selected Don to handle that matter.

We hired David Mazie and we couldn't have been happier with our decision. David is responsive and kept us informed with every aspect of our case. David fought hard for our interests and is a responsible advocate, who is respected for his experience and dedication.

David Mazie, in my opinion, is the best Attorney in the Country. Although he is well versed in legal knowledge, he dealt with our family with the utmost compassion and respect. Without being too specific, our case was nine years old when presented to him. He tirelessly worked around the clock with his firm, sometimes meeting or calling us after hours or on weekends. He takes his cases personally, so, he is very selective with his law partners and other professionals he brings into every case. You would really think that a lawyer of his stature wouldn't be pleasant to work with, but our family found him very personable and he can relate to people from all walks of life. We prayed for a top notch Attorney like Atty. Mazie and our prayers were answered. We had spoken with other lawyers but none were as professional and dedicated to our case than David Mazie. Our long and drawn out law suit was wrapped up by Mr. Mazie with amazing speed It only took him two years to research and finally try our case, which we won !!
To get the best results for his clients, he only works with the best - that's it! That's his secret, if any at all. He brought in professionals from different states who are all at the top of their field. We know that this is more expensive to do but Atty Mazie is so confident in winning that he stops at nothing to give his clients more than a fair chance should there be a trial. He uses the latest technology in and out of the courtroom. An example of this is that he brought in computer graphics specialists to reenact the specifics of the case so that the jury could fully understand the details of the case.
Please look no further for an Attorney. DAVID MAZIE IS THE BEST LAWYER!. What more do you need to contact him? Be fortunate if he takes your case, because you know you are in good hands with a top notch and well respected lawyer.
Good Luck !!

Mr. Jani was phenomenal helping me with a complicated case for my job contract. As a physician we don't always know the basic legal lingo and Mr. Jani really helped clarify that for me.

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.

Gary Meyer listens to his clients and gives them hones strategic feedback. He has represented me and my interest very effectively.

16 Dec, 2015 by Anonymous
My wife and I were first introduced to Gary Meyers almost 8 years ago by several friends Mr. Meyers had previously represented in a number of lawsuits involving successful litigation. In 2008, Mr. Meyers represented us in a rather involved contractual matter that continued for almost 5 years. Responding to endless motions, Mr. Meyers ultimately obtained a jury verdict in the amount of $2.7 million verdict. He also prevailed in an appeal of that verdict, and was steadfast and relentless in his pursuit of justice until our case was finally settled on a confidential basis. Mr. Meyers’ representation on our behalf was truly a legal version of David versus a corporate Goliath. He never wavered in his sense of fairness and right. Since then we have referred many friends and business colleagues and will happily continue to do so.

Mr. Lutz was a perfect choice for my husband's case. He found him online and read his reviews and from the first phone call two days after his injury to his final settlement, Mr Lutz was very informative, very knowledgeable about the process, and more importantly very thorough in explaining the process in layman's terms. Throughout the whole process, he kept in communication with my husband and every phone call he received from him started with "how are you feeling, how's your therapy going?" He was very genuine. We are very pleased with the outcome of his case and it was done in a very timely manner. Mr. Lutz and his assistant, Kathy, are a hell of a team and they will get results. Moving forward anyone that we know that needs to retain a personal injury lawyer, we highly recommend this firm.

I was hit by a car in 2012 as a pedestrian who suffered a great deal of pain due to sever injuries. As my lawyer Michael Epstein did an outstanding job representing my case in this matter. He took time out of his daily actives to reach out to me in regards to what I could be reward and as to what the client on the other end was willing to agree towards. Moving forward without hesitation he was able to negotiate with them in the amount we agreed would be fair.. Thank you again Michael Epstein and his firm for representing me in this matter and look forward to working with u again perhaps in the future..

I've managed to eventually regain my mobility and confidence to face the world. I felt secure with Doug, not only did he win me a multi million dollar verdict but, he has remained available to answer whatever questions I may have. Doug never fails to remain clear, concise and available not to mention he has a good sense of humor.

I hired Mr. Rinaldo to represent me after I was injured in a car accident. Matt is what I would call a super pro, someone who stands out among a group of like professionals. After completing treatment, Mr. Rinaldo called to inform me that the insurance company was willing to settle for the full value. When other lawyers turned down my case because there wasn't a clear liability, Matt Rinaldo was able to use his legal expertise and prepare a complaint that was persuasive and effective enough to get the best possible out come without even having to go to trial. I couldn't be happier with the result. If you need a super pro to handle your case or if you can't find a lawyer to handle your case, go see Matt at Rinaldo and Rinaldo and let him take a look.

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.
