I just wanted to say thanks for settling my case last year and let you know that I just started law school. I got a scholarship that covers all but $7,000 of my tuition each year. The settlement made it easier for me to move and afford everything else.

Ben was the attorney for my wife and I after I suffered a brain injury at the hospital. We had a meeting with the hospital lawyers to try and settle the case, I was ready to settle at 900 thousand, but Ben said to hold on! hand in there, your case is worth much more! .... about 5 hours later we settled for 1.4 million.
I like Ben, not only does he take charge of the case, I felt like he really cared about how the outcome would feel to us and how we would move forward after the lawsuit was over.

I was hit by a car while riding a bike. The driver drove off and the police did little about it. Ben tracked him down and filed a lawsuit. The driver denied he did it but Ben caught him in lies and his insurance company had to settle for a great amount. Ben is hard working, persistent, and I really liked having him on my side.

I had hired Anthony to represent my interests in a workman's comp case. Through his advice and assistance, I was able to receive compensation in a reasonable period of time. Without his help, I do not think I would have gotten what I was needing.

Anthony Laramore was referred to me by one of his collegues and now I know why his college sent the referral. I have had several questions regarding a legal issue with a past employee. He not only offered his advice and thoughts, but he understood my position as if it were his own business. I have recieved periodic emails (without me requesting them) asking if I needed anything about the case reassuring me that he is there for me and my business. From the follow-ups to his knowledge about the topics discussed, I highly reccommend Mr. Laramore and I would have no problem referring a family, friend or colleague to him.

Mr. Gaertner has been a strong, determined and tenacious advocate for my needs and the cases he has handled for me. Mr. Gaertner is trustworthy, in that his word is his bond. He is compassionate and has always placed my needs ahead of anything else involved in the legal process, while still maintaining a professionalism that is unsurpassed by anyone I've had contact with in the field of law. His communication and people skills are unequalled as well. There has never been an occasion when a telephone call or email has gone unanswered. Mr. Gaertner is honest and is a realist. He has never promised the moon to appease me, and has had several opportunities to temper my frustration and emotion(s), when I was getting bent out of shape due to matters to which I had no full understanding of such. I'm old, and rural/country refined. I'm not accustomed to seeking or taking advise from young people. That is what elders are for. Mark Gaertner has my complete trust and respect in all matters of which, he is representing me. To say I have full faith and confidence in Mr. Gaertner is an understatement. Mark Gaertner is a man with whom I believe will remain a lasting friend, long after the legal matters have been put to rest. I would, and have, whole heatedly referred others to Mr. Gaertner. I can assure you with confidence that I would not have, and would not do so, if I thought doing so would put my good name in peril.
I first became professionally acquainted with Mark several years ago, when my daughter was struck by a drunk driver. His first concern was that her medical needs we're being properly attended to by all parties. It was then, that he began addressing the legal issues. I brought Mr. Gaertner into a workman's compensation matter in 2010, and he has worked diligently to insure that my medical needs were addressed and that I was not further victimized by the workman's compensation system. He is intuitive and knowledgeable in his field, and respected by all who know him.

From the first day of our disaster to THIS day (that has been over 7 years now)......Mr. Devoto has been not only caring, concern AND proactive...he is NOT a lawyer that takes the money and runs. Since the settlement that he totally supported us through..he still is our friend and highly respected counsel for ANY issues that we have. I cannot really say in words how his wisdom and advise has helped myself and my family. We will always be blessed and thankful that he was involved with our case.

Andrea helped me when no one else could. She took care of things so I did not have to worry. I was kept informed, but she left out formalities that could add into my stress. She did not back down even when my outlook was bleak. I could never repay her for what she did for me.

The staff at the Wilbers Law Firm are incredible! After our accident they were supportive and swift at getting us the medical attention we needed. Throughout our case, if our assigned paralegal was out for any reason, one of their team members was able to jump in and offer assistance. They clearly took good notes as evidenced by how familiar they seemed with our case. Everyone we dealt with was friendly and responsive. They fought for our settlement and ended up going after both the driver and the car’s insurance. We’re happy for our outcome and grateful someone recommended their services!

Stephen was the first attorney I've ever needed. I'm not gonna lie, I had my doubts about him all the way until my hearing, but he managed to work out a great deal with the prosecutor. I never should have doubted him. I never write reviews, but I'll make the exception for Stephen. He's that good, and he's definitely worth the money.

I was referred to Steve Gelfman after calling other law offices, only to be rushed off the phone or not to receive a callback. The support staff at Hoffman & Gelfman were responsive and supportive. My case continued to drag on for what felt like forever, but Steve Gelfman stayed the course. He never ignored my calls, was patient, and has been dealing with cases like mine for years. He did what he had to do for a favorable settlement. The cost for his services was more than fair! Although I never want to be in a situation like this again, I feel better knowing there is an attorney that I can trust here in St. Louis.

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.
