Mr. Dippel was my lawyer for a case about my Mother's death. He made sure I was informed about everything, understood what would happen and was very honest with me. He knew the law and his recommendations were great. I truly recommend him as a person and lawyer.

Bill Dippel handled my medical malpractice case very professionally but also in a very personal manner. From the beginning he believed in my case and was confident in it's outcome. His associate Holly Kerr was very diligent in her case-building efforts, which were key to our success. I was regularly informed of where my case stood and what the next steps would be. In a case that was turned down by several attorney's, Bill Dippel secured a settlement for me that not only was significantly more than I anticipated, but also in a much shorter time than I expected. I would strongly recommend the law firm of Willam K. C. Dippel without hesitation.

Bill worked tirelessly and successfully on a personal injury case for our daughter, who is a minor. We found him to be very thorough, down to earth, skillful, knowledgeable, empathetic and equitable in his approach. He took the time to fully explain the caveats of various actions and positions with our case, so we could make well informed decisions. He spent time connecting with our daughter to help her understand what he does and how he was working for her. In our opinion, he interacted seamlessly and effortlessly with opposing counsel as well as the court appointed advocate for our daughters case to achieve the best possible outcome for her. Bill negotiated a settlement for our case beyond what we expected.

I was recently in a Legal dispute where I had little power on my own to get things resolved. I was referred by several trusted colleagues to reach out to Kennedy Hodges and I couldn’t be more relieved that I did. Kennedy Hodges was there from start to finish keeping me informed on my case and giving me peace of mind. I’m happy to say our case was a huge success to all involved! I will gladly refer any persons reading this review right now, who’s considering using their Firm, because in my personal experience they were exceptional. I also want to give special acknowledgement to Marta Ponce who was in constant correspondence with my family and was very responsive in answering any of my family’s questions. Thank you, Kennedy Hodges, you have me as a client for life.

Mr. Peel recently represented me in motorcycle accident. The case took a long time but he and his staff stuck with it in a professional manner that kept me at ease. When the case ended up in mediation, Mr. Peel not only wisely advised me and my wife during the process but he was on the phone with the insurance companies and hospital reducing the amount that we would pay from the settlement. This in no way increased the amount that we would pay to Mr. Peel but increased the amount of money we would keep. He didn't charge us an extra fee for this service which reflects his character and integrity. David became our friend through this process. I can't thank him enough.

Mr. Peel is an honest, hard-working, Godly man who exhibits a level of professionalism and care that is uncommon in his field. His responses are timely, his attention to detail is strong, and his character is admirable. Mr. Peel invested a level of personal interest and care in myself and my case. I didn't feel like just another number, or just another client. I felt like a real person and was treated with genuine concern and respect. As far as the case, the results that Mr. Peel has worked for have exceeded my expectations. Mr. Peel and his team are an absolute pleasure to work with, and are highly recommended.

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.

I was truelly blessed many years ago to have acquired Mr. Petty as my attorney. Jonathan defies in my book the general consensus of lawyers today. He takes on a case that I believe he first and for most believes in, and takes full charge in doing the most and best for his client! As a matter of fact, I remember questioning his use of top experts when not so bright people knew better...I will never forget his reply "because I think you deserve only the very best"... and only the best I received! I was always informed, updated, and in charge of what was going on. Its been my experience with lawyers that they take cases and do their own thing! Its been a few years since my case settled, but Jonathan and his staff stay in contact and that is an impossible find! Its my opinion that he will always be successful because he works with passion and belief of what he represents, its nott just a job but his dedication to human beings and morals. Anyone that is fortunate enough to attain Jonathan Petty has been smiled upon for life!

To everyone who is looking for the best lawyer out there, in my opinion, Mr. Jonathan M. Petty is one of the best lawyers that I have worked with. I was previously looking for an expert lawyer to help me with a medical malpractice case when I came across Mr. Petty. When dealing with the case he was always very professional. Mr. Petty always conducted himself, was well spoken, very knowledgeable and knew the law, responsive, respectful and courteous. I never had to worry about not hearing from Mr. Petty about my case. He kept me very informed and called on a regular basis. I never once worried about losing my case as well. I not only had a good experience with him as lawyer, but also gained a lifelong friend. He wanted to resolve the case in a reasonable amount of time. I would recommend Mr. Petty to anyone.

Brielle Hunt was more than exceptional in dealing with our auto accident suit in VA. She had what I thought was a difficult case because of her being in VA and my wife and I in NJ. I didn't know if the laws were the same. She was efficient, knowledgeable, supportive, and unsurpassed in her desire and diligence to bring this case to a positive conclusion for us. She did so with a dynamism and dedication that one rarely sees. She kept us informed at every point along the way. We could not have been more satisfied with her thoroughness and the outcome.

He communicated well and made sure that my mother was not taken advantage of by the insurance companies that offered her much less money than what was reasonable to cover all of her medical expenses. Mr. Medina showed care and compassion in working our case, and he was also very realistic in terms of what could be done. If you are looking for an ethical, caring, AND tough lawyer that will make sure you get every dollar your case deserves, call Mr. Medina.

I called The Law Offices of Marynell Maloney about a medical malpractice case on behalf of my husband. After the initial consultation, we were told Attorney Michelle Maloney would like to meet with us. When my husband and I met with her she was very straight forward and honest as to what we should expect if she agreed to represent my husband. Once she reviewed the evidence she agreed to take the case. There are several things that I admire about Michelle. One being she is a very compassionate and humble person, and very easy to talk to. She is also a very good listener which is a very important asset to look for in a great attorney. Due to Tort Reform I would assume most attorneys would not want to deal with these types of cases, but that does not stop Michelle from fighting for her clients' rights. Once Michelle started working on our case, it took her less than a year to win our case. When I tell you that she is the best attorney in San Antonio Texas to handle medical malpractice, I mean just that. No other attorney could have won this case except Michelle Maloney. I urge anyone, if you are looking for a medical malpractice attorney to represent you, please do not waste your time with any other attorney. Talk to Michelle Maloney first. If she can not help with your case, chances are you do not have a case. Thank you again Michelle. May God continue to bless you and keep you safe always. Submitted by Sharon P.

When first we were looking for help with our problem most lawyers we spoke to were unhelpful given the nature of the case Michelle however dug deep and came up with a possible solution and called us back to setup a face to face meeting. As the process continued she not only took diligent notes but she also provided great emotional support. She is professional while at the same time was empathetic to us. Without her on our legal team I am quite sure that not only the process would have been much more unbearable but the outcome would have been different. My family and I are grateful to have had her on our side for she truly is a gem.

Michelle Maloney's law firm has a well deserved longstanding reputation for being strong in evidence and procedure and for its formidable presense in the courtroom. In Michelle, I experienced the essential qualities I hope to find in an attorney . Michelle is professional, articulate, smart, well organized, and understands that the lawyer is there to serve the client. Michelle is dedicated and worked hard to help me get a good result in a high stakes matter involving medical malpractice and improperly prescribed drugs. Her thoroughness impressed me. The infrastructure of her law firm appears very strong and this support enables Michelle to fight effectively against the biggest and most well funded opposition. What I best remember is the warmth and compassion in Michelle's office. In time of stress, knowing you can trust and rely on your attorney can help give peace of mind. I sensed that Michelle left no stone unturned and took no shortcuts in her quest to help me.

Most folks would probably prefer to settle their case outside of court, but sometimes you can't get the other side to agree to a reasonable compromise. That is what happened in my case, so we went to a jury trial. Hunter did his research and was extremely well prepared for the case. Even though we were trying the case in a venue that favored our opponent, Hunter's people skills and judgement were on full display in every aspect of the case.

The law firm of Thorson Switala Mondock & Snead LLP is the best - Joe Mondock in particular. He took my son’s case after three other law firms declined – and two of the three chased us down, initially. The end result was that Joe Mondock got my son a decent settlement. The other law firms were too busy, or not interested, saying the injuries weren’t bad enough, the medical bills weren’t high enough ($7300), etc., even though the case had several rock solid aspects to it. My son and his girlfriend borrowed my car and stopped at a red light. A drunk driver slammed into the rear of my car and fled the scene. The drunk sped away with his airbag deployed, his trunk bent up and front end smashed. My son called the cops, and he and his girlfriend (she was driving) chased after the drunk in my damaged car ($6000 damage, in the shop for 100 days) and the drunk driver was apprehended after 7 miles of twists and turns. The drunk driver failed the sobriety test and was taken to jail. It was his 3rd DUI. None of this mattered to the other law firms. For them, it was all about the money, and they said there wasn’t enough money at issue. They told my son to settle it on his own. Of course, the drunk driver’s insurance company offered up “peanuts” when my son tried to settle with them. It was ridiculous. After we pondered the situation for a few months, luckily we saw the Thorson Switala Mondock & Snead television ad where they talk about “Walk-In Wednesday”. So, we met with Joe Mondock without an appointment the next Wednesday, and we discussed the potential case, at length. He said my son deserved more than the crap the drunk’s insurance company was offering. In fact, Mondock wrote up the complaint with an additional angle reflecting the drunk fleeing the scene - extra ammunition. To tell you the truth, at deposition, I don’t think the drunk driver’s attorney quite understood this additional aspect, nor their predicament. Mondock made the case about more than just the money. The defendant’s team understood eventually, when the case was settled for an amount double digits times what they initially offered my son. Bottom line, I give the law firm of Thorson Switala Mondock & Sneed a solid “A”, especially Joe Mondock. He wasn’t afraid to step up to the plate and take a swing, and fight the good fight.

My family has obtained Joseph Mondock for legal services on 3 different occasions, different family members each time. Our choice of him originally started when I was in an auto accident and we contacted his offices for legal services. Mr. Mondock came to our home to get my information as I was in pain due to my injuries. He was very professional and caring and took the time to make sure that I understood everything and answered all questions. Throughout my case he was quick to respond to my calls and questions as well as giving updates so that I always knew what was going on. He worked hard to get me the best settlement possible and make sure all of my bills due to my accident were taken care of. There was little to no work needed on my part as Mr. Mondock handled everything with the insurance and medical bills which removed all the stress of the situation from me and made it possible to just heal and deal with my injuries. My husband ended up in an accident a few years later which was more extensive and time consuming than mine. When we determined that we would need a lawyer, we did not hesitate in contacting Mr. Mondock for his services. He once again provided the same excellent service to the point that he makes you feel as if you are the most important case he has. My husbands recovery and medical care was much longer than mine and Mr. Mondock still took care of all details for this extended time and got us a generous and much appreciated settlement. Recently my son was in an accident due to an uninsured motorist and we immediately contacted Mr. Mondock to get his help in how to handle such a situation. He gave us the straight truth about how to deal with it and did not try to promise that he could do something that might not be possible just to get business. Mr. Mondock once again handled all of the details and worked with our medical insurance as well as our auto insurance for the uninsured motorist claim in order to get the claim handled the best possible way. He was even able to get the medical insurance to accept a lower amount for their reimbursement in order to provide my son with a larger settlement amount. Every time that we have obtained Mr. Mondock he has provided excellent service and has never let us down. We have been completely satisfied with his efforts and would highly recommend his services to anyone. We greatly appreciated all of his hard work and the stress that he removed from us by him handling all aspects and details of our claims.

March 2, 2019 To whom it may concern, We are pleased with the opportunity to provide a reference for Paul Perantinides. Our daughter discovered her chances of surviving the type of cancer she had was diminished to zero due to the malpractice of the surgeon. Knowing she was losing the battle my daughter sought the advice of a lawyer. Mr. Perantinides ultimately acquired her case. Our daughter asked Paul to “please not forget about her.” Our daughter lost her battle with cancer in 2011 at the age of 33. During the 18 months from her diagnosis and first surgery until her death she suffered indescribable, horrific, unrelenting pain. She left behind her two girls, age 5 years and 2-1/2 years at that time. Mr. Perantinides remained an advocate for our daughter’s cause. His perseverance in holding the surgeon and facility responsible for their malpractice resulted in a settlement in 2017. Six years after her death. He did not forget about her. Although no amount of money would ever compensate for the death of our daughter, we are grateful to Mr. Perantinides for the settlement. It will help our granddaughters with their future education. So, to reiterate, we are pleased to provide a reference for Paul Perantinides. We are grateful for the years of work he did in holding the parties accountable. Thank you. Toni & Bryan

In our first meeting together, it was obvious that Paul was different from the other attorneys I had sought out. My wife passed away under the care of a local hospital, and I was looking for someone to represent me. He asked me all the right questions and engaged himself clearly showing interest in me and my family. In that first meeting it was obvious that he knew what he was talking about. He was confident about taking on my case. As we moved forward through the coming months, I became convinced that I had chosen the right person for the job. As I was introduced to his staff over time I was extremely impressed with all of them. Paul has set an atmosphere of excellent customer service,always showing respect and care. No questions were left unanswered, no phone calls were left hanging. Paul explained every action through the process, all the pros and cons, ups and downs. All the risks and all the possible out come. At no time did he ever try to tell me something that might have had a hidden agenda. He is an honest man, with integrity, something not always seen in this profession. We settled out of court due to Paul's expertise and resources that led the hospital to ask if we would meet with a third party negotiator. Which we did. I have nothing but good to say about Paul and his staff, and I have recommended him to people, and will continue to .

I highly recommend Tyna Ek as defense counsel. In the past 20 years she has defended many complex litigated cases for my company. I can count on her to analyze the issues thoroughly and provide guidance on the best course of action. She gets great results in trial, if the case gets that far. Most of our cases have been resolved successfully prior to trial because of her excellent skills in the discovery & pre-trial process.

Over my 35 year career, I have probably hired around 100 different lawyers throughout seven western states. Tyna Ek is in my top 5 attorneys. I would unequivocally recommend Ms. Ek as a defense attorney in complex litigated matters. I have hired Ms. Ek on numerous, high-profile cases over the last twelve years with consistently outstanding results. She is cunning, strategic, prompt, articulate, and results-oriented. She either wins at every trial, or she gets the matter settled at or below my expectations, within cost.

Patrick was very helpful on a case that was difficult in that I live far away from where my personal injury occurred, He made everything about the case easy and got me a re-compensation for more than I had even hoped for. I would gladly use Patrick II again in a heartbeat.

Mr. Salvi handled a personal injury matter for my mother and he made her feel like his most important client each time she talked with him. He was thorough in answering questions and explaining the legal process. He had a way of calming my mom's nerves and reassuring her about the process. He was able to obtain a positive outcome and went above and beyond. My mother is one that goes on gutt instinct and first impressions and felt from the start that Patrick was caring, professional and loved what he does.

Joseph Dooley helped me research and develop a malpractice case to help with a simultaneous court case where the issue was caused by said medical malpractice. He is insightful, deep-thinking, caring and provided excellent legal counsel for me in a complex case. There were times when he advised me to proceed in a certain direction and times when he advised refraining from legal action to protect me financially, even when it would be less lucrative for him. I highly recommend Mr. Dooley for any personal injury situation. He is an honest, intelligent and assertive attorney.

Joseph Dooley handled my car accident case with confidence, wisdom and empathy. . I was not at fault in the accident, but I had sustained physical injury and had a totaled car and needed someone who knew the law. Thank God I hired Joe. He knows the law, but he knows a lot more than that. He knows how to aggressively handle insurance companies and collection agencies with logic, not emotion. He knew how to handle me with an amazing combination of empathy and education. I wanted to know and understand everything that was happening. Joe instinctively knew that. He was ALWAYS available for me if not instantly, that same day. If you have ever worked with an attorney before, you will know that this quality alone sets him apart. Joseph Dooley is a brilliant attorney who really cared about defending me and about my welfare.

Joe is an exceptional lawyer. I hired him with respect to a personal injury case in which, as a cyclist, I was hit by an automobile. Joe was highly strategic and insightful in navigating the complexities of the case. His experience proved critical in securing both a complete conviction in the criminal case (judge "threw the book" at the driver") as well as a meaningful settlement in the civil case. Joe knowledge and experience with the complexities of this process were really helpful. As my advocate he was timely, strategic, clear-headed, well prepared, thoughtful, direct and in the in - correct. Exceptional

Mr.Davey is one Hell of a lawyer! He fought tirelessly to get the maximum available settlement for me. There is a HUGE difference between what the insurance co WANTED to give me and what Mr.Davey actually GOT me. I can't imagine the # of hours that were put in to fight for my proper settlement.

Matt is a great lawyer period! When he took over my case it was just a few months from the SOL and I was very worried about that, Matt assured me that he would handle everything and handle it he did. He answered every single question I had (no matter how dumb) in a timely matter he didn't hesitate to email or call me back the same day! When it was time to negotiate with the insurance company Matt kept me on top of every single detail, and phone conversation. Matt truly seems to care about his clients, he doesn't just treat you like "a number" like some lawyer's and firm's do. Matt went well above my expectations. After my case settled I had some personal bills that I needed to get paid and Matt made arrangements to have my check hand delivered to me instead of mailing it and having to wait longer for it to arrive and clear so I was able to get those bills paid. Matt is not only a great lawyer but hes just a pleasure to deal with as well, he made a very stressful situation very easy to deal with and understand. I highly recommend if you need a lawyer. Call Matthew Davey!

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:

  1. What experience do you have with medical malpractice cases like mine?
    Confirm the lawyer has a successful track record with similar cases.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Understand the contingency fee percentage and any additional costs you may incur.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my case?
    Seek an honest assessment of your case's strengths and potential challenges.
  4. How long will the process take?
    Get an estimate of the timeline for settling or taking the case to trial.
  5. Will you handle my case personally?
    Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement.
  6. 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.
