In dealing with Ron Burke I finally felt that I was with a lawyer that believed in my case just as much as i did and was not there just to make a quick buck. My case was unique and there is not a lot of lawyers that handle this type of case because legal malpractice is a very grey area. At the end a recovery was made and recovery or not I considered myself very fortunate to have been represented by Mr. Ron Burke. So when you think that there is no one to help you, think again, Ronald C Burke attorney at law.

I found Ronald Burke to be an outstanding lawyer. He is smart, honest and kind. I appreciated the fact that my calls and questions were respectfully anwsered in a timely manner. Ron carefully explained the details of my case in terms I could relate to. At one point I wanted to settle, he encourage me to wait and I am thrilled that I did. My settlement was more than I could have ever imagined. I am forever grateful to him.

Mr. DiMartini and his Law Firm have shown Care and Compassion not only upon our initial meeting but throughout my ordeal. With a sea of Attorneys in NYC and the negative things said about them an individual is skeptical and cautious in dealing with them. I can assure you my mind was put to rest and my apprehensions disappeared as I got to know My Attorney. Mr. DiMartini is a Professional in his field of Law, Extremely Competent, Knowledgeable and Cares about his Client's Well Being. So from my experience of being one of his previous clients I would give him more than five stars and highly recommend him to anyone who needed legal help for a wrongful injury. Thank You..Stuart DiMartini....NYC 2015

I worked with Mr. Lasher on an automobile case, and couldn't ask for a better experience. I had hesitation to even pursue a case, but Mr. Lasher made everything so easy and smooth. He was always available to communicate with, because he is very kind and puts you at ease. I had an excellent outcome with the case, as well. Would recommend without hesitation.

Rick is a friendly and professional lawyer. He represented me in an automobile accident. I never had to worry about the case in Rick's hand. I was always updated with new information about my case and I've had all my questions answered, even when I texted at 8PM for clarifications. Speaking with him felt like I was speaking to a friend; he always greeted me with a huge smile and spoke to me like I was his friend. This ultimately made me feel comfortable talking about my injuries with someone I didn’t know at first. And I never hesitated with asking him any questions because he always answered them right away. It felt natural to speak about the case because he truly cared about my well-being and went above and beyond for me. His communication skills and work ethics always put my mind at ease; he made it so that the entire process was painless. I didn’t need to worry about any part of it because he bestowed upon me a sense of confidence that I didn’t know I had. Everything that he said and did was to guarantee the best results. And it did. These are reasons why I trust his judgement & guidance. I am a grateful and content client.

I can't possibly say enough good things about my experience with this law firm. It's difficult to imagine going through this trial without Gersowitz, Libo, & Korek and in particular, Jeff Korek. Articulate, intelligent, kind, and direct were my first impressions of him and until I saw him in the courtroom, I had no idea that these qualities would make him unstoppable at trial.
In a lawsuit that spanned almost 7 years, I put myself in his hands and wouldn't hesitate to do it again. Difficult at times but Jeff and his team were sensitive to those difficulties and made me understand that they would help and protect me during the process. I came to trust them implicitly. Jeff and his team not only secured my ability to pay for future medical treatments and chemotherapy, but he made sure that my children's future was secure. At Gersowitz, Libo, & Korek, they fight for you like you're family and treat you as such. Thank you, Jeff, for fighting for my future and helping me stay in the fight with you! I hope this day never comes but I wouldn't hesitate to ask for your help again.

Mr. Manna handled a medical malpractice case involving my wife and the loss of her sight. He did an extensive investigation into the people and organizations he felt were responsible for the injury. He also, with the help of his chosen experts, was able to relate the injury to the responsible parties.
During the progress of the case he always kept us advised and prepared. We met many times both at his office or at our home and the meetings were always cordial and professional.
This was a devastating loss. While we learned to cope with our new lifestyle Mr. Manna took care of all that needed to be done to resolve the case. He did so with expertise, professionalism and a geunine concern for how we were coping.
We were totally satisfied with the way Mr. Manna handled the case.

I hired Joe as my attorney in the year 2012, after a car crash due to a drunk driver. On our first meeting, Joe explained everything that was involved and how long the case would take. I know Joe and the firm have many cases, but he made me and my wife feel like we were the only ones with a case. His knowledge in law is beyond words. Over the years, Joe has always been there and taken my calls. Even when I became angry on why it was me in a car crash, he always knew what to say. Back to my case, Joe has been professional from day one and to day this he has my trust in handling my case 100%

Joe Manna is the kind of lawyer you want on your side when you feel helpless and confused. Unfortunately my family lost our mother to what we felt were bad decisions by her surgeon and his residents. Joe was able to explain the law to us and had let us know ahead of time what he honestly thought of our case. He understood when we where upset and made it as comforting as possible. He was able to explain the law in a way we could understand without talking over our heads. Joe was always willing to call and explain things when we thought it was necessary. Joe kept fighting for my family and I throughout the entire process. More importantly, he fought for our mother. Joe was able to settle our case out of court for a substantial sum and saved us from having to relive the nightmare all over again in court.

He has been successful in all of the cases he has handled for my family. You can always feel confidant when Scott is on your side! I recommend Scott to anyone that needs a GREAT attorney.

Scott effectively negotiated a settlement with 2 insurance companies following an auto accident. He explained to us the basics of insurance, no-fault and tort law and set our expectations early. He remained available to us for questions and his office handled our no-fault claims even when initially denied by the company. Well recommended.

Our family is very happy that we chose Dalli & Marino to represent us in our fight for justice for my late mother who suffered terrible injuries at her nursing home. John Dalli and his team were incredibly professional throughout the long process and kept us well informed.

They will show great patience, comfort, understanding and professionalism to get you the justice that you deserve.

I found Dalli & Marino strictly by accident after my late mother was assaulted due to negligence on the part of a former nursing home. From day one, our attorneys and their office staff were tirelessly active and unfailingly communicative. That it is a family-run firm probably had something to do with the degree of empathy and support we encountered. But when it came to brass-tacks legal knowledge, they were also hard-nosed, shrewd, and on top of every machination the opposition attempted to pull off. Outcome: a tidy cash settlement. Based upon our experience, if there is any possible way to win your suit, Dalli & Marino will make it happen.

Honesty. Integrity. Diligence. Transparency. This is the service and commitment we received from the staff at Jacob Fuchsberg Law Firm. After my father was a victim of medical malpractice, I contacted a lawyer I had know for many years and he referred me to Jacob Fuchsberg Law Firm. He said and I quote, “They are the best and who I would want representing me.” My father’s needs were put first and he was treated with respect and professionalism. They listened intently and our opinions were valued. We trusted them and they undoubtedly had my father’s best interests in mind. When the hospital’s lawyers tried to minimize my father’s injuries, our lawyers were stronger, unwavering, knowledgeable, fought harder, and rose to the occasion. My family has nothing but gratitude and appreciation for the experience we had at Jacob Fuchsberg Law Firm. Eli was exceptional when it came to explaining my father’s case, addressing our concerns, responding to emails, returning calls, and working towards getting my father the best possible outcome for his case. They worked intelligently and diligently, and kept us informed every step of the way. Thank you Eli, Alan, and your entire staff!

After suffering a life changing injury during surgery I solicited Queller, Fisher, Washor, Fuchs, & Kool for help. I went through a relaxing interview with one of their paralegals who arranged discussion and meeting with Kevin Mcdonald my lawyer. My initial discussions with Kevin took place over the telephone because of my inability to travel. As we spoke I became very confident I choose the right firm to represent me. During my first visit to the firm Kevin kindly introduced me to Barry Washor firm partner. I was flattered; both of these gentlemen have a great reputation. Kevin spent several hours with me pooring through the piles of case documentation with great knowledge and ease. Too say I was impressed by his medical knowledge, integrity, thoroughness, and the specifics of my case would be an understatement. Kevin clearly explained the process and time lines. My case currently has been filed with the court, depositions on the horizon. Kevin's knowledge, attention to detail, and performance has also helped take some of the anxiety away. Thank you for helping me!

Michael Ronemus is everything you would want to find in an attorney. patient, knowlegeable, detailed, and caring. Mr. Ronemus represented me in a legal malpractice against my former personal injury attorney who mishandled a class action, product defect action. Mr. Ronemus, through appeals brought this action to a successful conclusion. I felt so comfortable with Mr. Ronemus that he even handled a trademark infringement action for my family and myself even though he did not specialize in such. This action was also brought to a successful conclusion.
I would be highly recommend Mr. Ronemus.

My injury was due to a bus accident which meant I was going up against the powerful MTA and the NYTA. One of my doctors recommended Adam Cahn because my case was going to be complicated due to the fact I had pre-existing conditions and the other side was going to surely use this information to disprove the severity of my new injuries. She knew Adam had a great reputation in winning difficult cases. I'm so happy I went with her suggestion. From the very beginning Adam and the entire team at Sakkas, Cahn & Weiss made me feel like my case was very important them, like I was a part of their family and we were going to win. They arranged additional medical reviews, kept me informed of the other side's actions, made clear to me which laws gave them the confidence that we were going to win. Adam used his vast medical contacts and the firm's assets to build my case. He was honest from the very start that because of my pre-existing conditions it was going to be a long process, so the firm helped me make some sound financial decisions a long the way to keep my family afloat. Of course he won a large settlement for me and my family, and his post-settlement suggestions (which financial firms to look at to invest the bulk of the settlement) were an added bonus. Along the way Adam became my friend. I continue to go to him for legal advise on other matters, and his referrals have been equally assessable and competent. If you have a serious injury, or if you're not sure about how serious your injury is and whether you have a case stop thinking about it and go to Adam Cahn.

Adam Cahn was a very attentive lawyer who never hesitated to share his expertise with me or my family as he worked on my case. He continuously kept me informed and always provided clear explanations to the steps throughout the legal process. I was very satisfied with the amount of my settlement and have recommended Mr. Cahn and his firm to friends, who were very appreciative of his services as well. I know he's been continuously ranked a NY Super Lawyer -- now I know why!

I retained Paul Walker, Esq after the previous attorneys at a large Manhattan-based firm that I had retained for an OPMC matter were pressuring me to sign an agreement that was internally inconsistent and contradictory. Upon meeting Paul, I knew immediately that I should have hired him from the beginning. He was extraordinarily knowledgeable, articulate, diplomatic, and empathetic. However, his greatest strength was his honesty. He listened to all of my concerns and he told me my options truthfully and explained every possibility to me so that I could truly make an informed decision as to how to proceed. I cannot emphasize how grateful I am to him for his advice and advocacy of my case. He achieved a result that my prior attorneys told me was impossible and for that, I will be eternally indebted to him. I wholeheartedly recommend Paul for any state medical board issue as he is truly unparalleled in his field.

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.

- 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.

- Filing a lawsuit: Initiating legal action by filing a complaint against the responsible parties in the appropriate court.

- 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.

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.

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.
