Jerome and his team are amazing. I had a wrongful death case that no other attorney would touch. Not only did this team take on the case, they took it on with a passion that was amazing. They became friends, and protected me as much as possible from experiencing any more pain than the already tragic loss of a child.,,and fought for him as if my child was part of their family. I can never thank this team enough for their passion, compassion, drive, and desire to do what is right, and not what may be best for them, but what was best for me. Love you guys to the moon.

J. is an amazing man and a great Lawyer. He just handled a very tuff case for me. He is down to earth and helpful but more importantly, extremely intelligent. He is so easy to work with. He listens and understands and cares. His approach in the courtroom is what makes him so great. He comes across as casual and easy going but he never misses anything. He is always three steps ahead of the defense. I can't say enough good things about J. and Jordana and Melissa. They make a fantastic Team. Thank you for your hard work and successful outcome.

I'm not one to write reviews, but Jay Reinan deserves one. Without going into details of my case, I'd like to commend Jay for his absolute grasp of fundamental legal issues, without the all-too-prevalent prescient grasp of potential clients' wallets. I admit to having been "down on attorneys," but this guy is actually restoring my faith in this much-denigrated profession.
If you have a good case, bring it to Jay. He'll tell you the truth about your case, quickly and succinctly. If you have an unusual case, you're in good hands - he isn't one to recoil in horror nor to dismiss a valid claim, substantiated by sufficient and relevant evidence, no matter how much the claim may raise the eyebrows of other less forward-thinking attorneys.
His paralegal, Melissa, is whip-smart and empathetic. His offices are convenient to downtown, and parking is easy. What's not to like?

Brett Oppenheimer did a brilliant job settling my daughter's injury case. He kept us well informed, made sure bills were paid and was able to help my daughter get a more than fair settlement. I would recommend Brett highly to anyone who values an attorney/client relationship and wants to make sure their loved one is taken care of in a timely and fair manner. I hope I never have to need an attorney for such an injury again, but I am not afraid if I do because I know exactly who I will call... Brett Oppenheimer!

I am an Indiana resident who needed to approach a medical malpractice attorney in regards to a potential case for my mother who is an Ohio resident. My company's corporate attorney recommended the Linton Law Firm and I am so grateful he did as Bob and his staff were exemplary in guiding, educating, and directing me to the steps that were necessary in order to proceed to litigation against a hospital and rehab facility that mistreated and harmed my mother. In six months time Bob spent hours with me on conference calls and his assistant Robin worked tirelessly with me in obtaining and documenting medical records all at no cost to my family. His insight was invaluable and I would recommend his services to anyone who is looking to hire a dedicated, personable, above board attorney who truly has compassion for individuals who have suffered for unnecessary reasons.

I highly recommend Mr. Robert Linton to anyone in need of an outstanding, top-rated attorney.
Robert Linton--Bob--as I and my family came to address him, soon became "like family" to us.
I confirm that Bob is a kind (and one-of-a kind), empathetic, honest attorney who dedicates not only himself, his team and legal assistant Robin, and all his resources to his client, but his passion for his craft.
Bob was totally invested in championing my case for justice and fair compensation, following an automotive crash, which caused me injury. Pre-existing medical conditions complicated my case, ones which I previously were able to balance and manage, now worsened, changing the trajectory of my life, robbing me of participating in those activities which I previously, fully enjoyed with my family.
Bob skillfully navigated the flawed legal system, to right the wrong carelessly committed against me, by a negligent driver.
Owing to Bob's solid character and resolve, he continually reaffirmed my confidence in his legal guidance throughout the legal proceedings.
Mr. Robert Linton--Bob--is truly a "real lawyer for real people."
I, and my entire family, will forever be grateful to him for advocating justice for me.
thank you Bob Linton.

Mr. Linton is an exceptional attorney. We sought his counsel and expertise when we were consumed with grief and the overwhelming circumstances that led to the loss of an amazing husband, father, physician and humanitarian.
Mr. Linton met with us to discuss our situation. His calm demeanor, compassion and respect for our loss, provided our family great solace and confidence, enabling us to entrust him with our journey and our desire to seek a just resolution.
Mr. Linton skillfully listened as we shared the painful details of our loss. With understanding and patience, Mr. Linton was able to sort through our grief and focus on the relevant issues that gave our case its merits. He continuously advised us on the status of our case and carefully explained the process as we moved forward.
He interviewed witnesses, took the testimonies of experts and diligently researched the circumstances that surrounded our case. But above all he made it his mission to come to know the person we lost through our stories and the stories of the people whose lives were touched and forever impacted.
Mr. Linton's skillful navigation of the intricacies of our case paired with his vast knowledge and experience, resulted in a just and rightful conclusion.
Mr. Linton is a kind, principled, generous and spirited advocate for those in need of expert counsel. We are forever blessed in knowing him and forever grateful to him.

I had a procedure that had an incident happen the day after my second child was born. I ended up spending just under a month in the hospital, continued another 3 months at home recovering. All the while Michelle was hard at work getting things taken care of for us while I was getting better my husband could work and take care of our two kids without having to stress more than needed. Michelle did her best and succeeded at not only getting us back on track financially but mentally as well so that we could get back to enjoying our days with our kids worry free. Michelle truly takes your case to heart and does everything in her power to do what’s best for you! Can not say thank you enough!

I consulted and hired the firm based on a recommendation from a friend who referred me to Sean Domnick. One of his associates was assigned to my case and it was one of the greatest experiences I have ever had under such a bad circumstance. Michelles professionalism and resolve to do “the right thing” on my behalf was incredible given her relative youth... she reminded me so much of my daughter.. We bonded not only as attorney and client but as people. When she needed to be she was tough— with the mediators— but when I needed her to be a friend during this very difficult time—she was that as well. Empathetic, obviously brilliant, and in total command of the law she was also a relatable person with a family and a humanity about her that is not easy to find. I am sure that we remain friends forever... I would recommend both her and the firm to anyone in my situation.

Mr. Bowen mediated a complicated and contentious lawsuit that I was involved in. After mediating for more than 5 hours, and almost giving up a couple of times, the case settled. Mr. Bowen was patient, persistent, and kept us focused on the important issues. He is a true professional and I highly recommend him as a mediator.

Attorney Bowen represented me 3 years ago when I was in a car accident, He did an amazing job and although I am sure he had many other cases treated me and my case as if I and my case were his most important. This is something you just don't seem find much of anymore. I recommended him to a friend of mine and now He's currently helping ahim with an insurance dispute. In my opinion, He's a great lawyer and I highly recommend him".

Thomas was a sincere pleasure to work with. He was a commensurate professional when dealing with insurance companies who were the opposite. He displayed consistent clear communication and patience. His team was always professional and kept me informed. He went above and beyond to ensure I understood all of my rights and the different paths to take. When I had concerns or doubt, he and his team took the time to review all choices so I could make the most informed decision. When you need a lawyer it is typically a time of great distress. He ensured to consistently check in on me and my stress levels displaying great empathy, sympathy, and support. Honestly, without his support I would have given up related to my case. He helped me to understand I had a case and supported me through to a successful ending. I would give him more stars if I was able!

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. I cannot recommend Tom highly enough - and I'm certain that this review will not do him justice . . .but I'll try.
In 2012 an individual hit me while I was at a stop, totaling my Ford F150. I suffered a concussion and several injuries which required surgery and rehab. Through no fault of Tom's, the case dragged on for 2 1/2 years prior to reaching a settlement. The process required my deposition, mediation and an insane amount of discovery.
Through it all, Tom was amazing! He and his staff treated me like family. Tom contacted me often, ensuring that I never wondered for a moment what was going on in my case or how hard he was fighting for me.
The deposition and mediation were so much less stressful than they could have been. Tom thoroughly prepared me and ensured I knew exactly what to expect.
Tom took the time to understand what my priorities for settlement were and why. This meant so much to me. Ultimately, Tom got an extremely favorable settlement for me, and I am eternally grateful.
I highly recommend Tom - I cannot imagine having to go through the process with anyone else.

Tom came to SC to defend my wife who was charged with two counts of murder....of which she is innocent. Tom did a tremendous job and after a month long trial that involved hundreds of testimonials, including intense and complex medical testimony, the jury was hung and a mistrial was declared. Tom was ready to return to SC again to represent Gail, but Judge James refused to grant Tom permission to represent Gail since he was not licensed in SC. Things did not go well in the next trial in part because of Tom's absence. I'm now doing all I can to have Gail set free from prison, where she is serving a life sentence for a crime that did not occur. Gail and I both feel that if Tom would of been allowed back for the retrial, she would of been found not guilty and this nightmare would of been over. Thank you Tom for all you did for Gail and myself. We will never forget you and we thank you for believing in Gails innocence. I am now putting together a team to file habeas corpus for Gail. I will never give up on having Gail set free.

Ted represented me in a lawsuit which went to court. This case was won in our favor.
Ted is an outstanding attorney. He and I had an outstanding working relationship. It was available at any time. At times we would meet on the weekends. He is fastidious. Was able to present my case with clarity and bring it to a favorable outcome.
I would recommend this attorney to anyone facing a malpractice suit.

I've had the pleasure of working with Ted for 10 years in a medical malpractice defense capacity. His inimitable attention to detail and his availability for time-sensitive matters never failed to provide great comfort for both my insurance carrier employer and its clients (medical professionals). From day-to-day issues requiring specific legal advice and analysis, to a very medically-complex jury trial in Sac. Superior Court (and the several years of representation and navigation that led up to it), Ted has proven time and again that he is worthy of mention with the very highest echelon of his peers in Northern California and beyond.

David defended us in a medical malpractice case against a patient/plaintiff, and demonstrated solid wisdom that he had picked up in decades of experience. His understanding of the process and substance were invaluable guidance through the process. To top that, he prevailed outright when he was forced to go to trial. The patient got nothing, despite all the shenanigans the patient's attorney threw at him.
We were very satisfied.
Besides his legal expertise, he is a very personable and honest person. Each time we have a question about the case, about the plaintiff or the court, he was always there available and helpful. He is very patient and his solid and in depth knowledge give his clients confidence and put them at ease. He is one of the best attorneys I have worked with. I have no hesitation in recommending him. One of the best.

As the Executive Director of a San Francisco based medical malpractice insurance company, I have worked with David Depolo for 15 years. Mr. Depolo has defended many of our insured/physicians over the course of those years. The company and the insureds have consistently found that Dave is trustworthy and exceptionally knowledgeable in medical/legal environment. Dave takes his work very seriously, and this is reflected in his commitment to his clients. In short--Dave cares about his clients. He will work with honest determination for the best possible outcome. I highly recommend David Depolo as an attorney and as a person. For the past 15 years I have relied on his intelligence and objectivity, and he has never let me down.

I have known Tracy Davis and practiced law with her for over 25 years, I originally hired Tracy, in part because she had been a competitive ice skater and knew the value of hard work, as a lawyer in our predessor firm, Fonda, Garrard, Hilberman & Davis, She quickly became a 'go to' lawyer in that firm and its successor firm, Garrard & Davis, which was the predecessor to her current firm The Davis Law Group. Tracy has always distinguished herself as a person and lawyer with the confidence to take on and solve any challenge. She is smart, disciplined, caring and absolutely reliable. You won't find a lawyer who takes her client's cases to heart more than Tracy.

I was unfortunately involved in a lawsuit following a car accident I had. Ms. Davis reviewed the complaint and advised me as to what I should and shouldn't be concerned about, who to talk to, how to answer various questions relating to the accident, and just generally helped calm the situation for me. I found the lawsuit very disturbing and Ms Davis helped me weather the storm with confidence. The suit was eventually dismissed.

I was in need of an attorney due to an unexplainable horrific tragedy my family and I were forced to face. Quite hesitantly, I proceeded to research the areas that affected us and look into hiring a lawyer. I connected with Mr. Morris and speaking to him about my problem. He was very knowledgeable, kind and compassionate. My questions were always answered quickly and with thorough explainations and a plan on how we would proceed. He was a Godsend to me. He would take as much time as needed and never felt rushed or a bother. He is extremely intelligent of the Florida laws and helped me through some very very difficult days. Ultimately, the outcome was very positive due to all his hard work. I would not hesitate to highly recommend Doug Morris of Gordon & Donner Law Firm. I can promise you hiring Mr. Morris will be the best move you can make.

My husband and I first reached out to another lawyer for help. After chasing them down, constantly calling for updates and letting months go by, we get a letter in the mail saying they would not be taking our case. Frustrated and discouraged we didn't give up and searched for another lawyer. We found Doug and right away knew he would be the one. He was super responsive, called us continuously, never made me chase him down. He was great about returning phone calls, texting us if needed and meeting with us. He made sure we were comfortable, happy and ultimately helped us to obtain a settlement that has forever changed my family's life. I couldn't imagine if we didn't find Doug. When nobody else wanted our case and didn't have time for us, he made the time and helped us get the recovery we deserved.

I consulted with, and hired, Jim Perdue and his team in 2010 on a medical malpractice case, it was settled by 2013. During the in between time Jim and his team became very very knowledgeable about every medical aspect of my case, very detail oriented. He went above and beyond of what I expected of him. He and the team were very courteous and kind , the treated me like family, genuinely. He would not settle for less than he felt I deserved, refusing to budge. I was kept informed EVERY step of the way. He, and his partners, were EXTREMELY available to me at ALL times. His guidance was invaluable. There are not enough words to say how satisfied I am with the outcome of my case. He, and his entire team are exceptionally brilliant . They prepared me for my deposition with everything and anything I may need to know. My entire experience with the legal process was incredibly positive due to Jim and his team . I highly recommend him to anyone needing his legal expertise. I cannot stress enough how incredible Jim and his entire team are. I am very blessed to have crossed paths with them and have them in my life. Three years after the fact I'm still in contact with them. I'm more than just a "meal ticket" to them. I'm a flesh and blood person and their care of me is genuine. They are invaluable. You won't find better representation.

A little more than three years ago, a medical team made mistakes during and after a routine procedure that nearly resulted in my death. I spent a month and a half in intensive care and had to take five months off from work to recuperate. The suffering was unimaginable, and I still have significant pain. No matter how blatant the doctors' failings were, the first malpractice attorneys I consulted didn't think my case was strong enough to pursue. In Tyler, I found a champion for my cause. From the start, he engaged my family in a transparent, ethical, and kind manner. It was always easy to get in touch with him on the phone or through email. He discovered a creative approach to my case that he thought might bring us success, despite the clear challenges we were facing. During it all, he not only kept us informed, he invited us to participate in the process as much as we wanted to, and he showed profound respect and appreciation for our contributions. He found the best medical experts. He spent many, many hours familiarizing himself with the scientific literature on the procedures I underwent and the health complications I experienced. He poured over thousands of pages of documents with a jeweler's eye. At a certain point, he was so knowledgeable about the issues that he seemed like a doctor himself. It was when it came to the depositions, though, that I realized how skilled Tyler truly is. At his side, I watched him engage the defendants with energy, expertise, determination, and unflappable courage. For the first time, I started to feel genuinely optimistic. After months of working with my family, he arranged a mediation session with the doctors, their lawyers, and their insurance company. There, too, Tyler proved himself to be an amazing strategist. At the end of it all, he negotiated a settlement for us that exceeded our hopes. My family was never in it for money; we simply wanted justice and an admission that what happened to me was wrong. Tyler got us that and much more. He never raised our expectations beyond what he saw as the best possible outcome. Amazingly, he was able to improve upon that in a substantial way. If you're looking for the most capable medical malpractice attorney in San Antonio--or maybe even Texas or the whole country--give Tyler a call. If he decides to take your case, you'll have a lion working on your side. After all was said and done, he continued to maintain a relationship with me, showing my family that he truly cared about us. We're so lucky to have found Tyler and to have had him agree to take our case. I can't recommend him highly enough. I truly believe that if he can't find justice for you, then no one can.

I am an attorney and entrusted to Tyler the case against the doctors responsible for the death of my mom. Tyler outworked the attorneys for the defendants and obtained a successful settlement in an area of the law that is completely slanted toward the defendants. To say I was impressed and satisfied is actually an understatement.

I was referred to The Cochran Firm by a close friend who used this firm because their family lost their loved one during a nursing home abuse incident. I contacted the firm to submit a medical malpractice claim on behalf of my husband who was lost during a medical procedure. Mr. Meltmar and staff quickly responded to my medical malpractice claim, told me what my options were and kept me and my family fully informed during the entire process (approximately 17 months). Mr. Meltmar in particular was very forthright with me about the process and what my options were. Based on his research, we were able to reach a reasonable settlement which provided a good deal of closure for myself and family. We are forever grateful for the professionalism shown and for all of the hard work performed on our behalf.

When my husband was seriously injured on private property, we thought that the owner’s insurance company would work with us to fairly handle the injuries. We were wrong and quickly realized that we would need to hire an attorney to help. We hired Mark Johnson and Michael Sprangers to represent us. From the day we hired them, a huge burden was lifted from our shoulders. They guided us through the entire process, so we could focus on getting better and our lives (and not a lawsuit). We can’t thank them enough.

Mark represented me in a legal malpractice lawsuit. The attorney my husband and I had hired to help us with our wills and estate planning had, unbeknownst to us prior to my husband’s passing, created a real disaster. This resulted in a lawsuit between family members and was the absolute worst-case scenario I or anyone else wanted to go through, especially while dealing with my husband’s passing. I hired Mark to pursue a legal malpractice lawsuit against my previous estate attorney. Mark was so great. From the beginning he made the process understandable, and I always felt I was in great hands. Mark was always prepared, professional, and I cannot thank him enough for handling my case. I highly recommend him.

Mark Johnson and Michael represented me in a personal injury case. I am a journeyman electrician, and I was seriously injured while working. I had no prior experience with lawsuits, and Mark and Michael were great. They guided me through the entire process, and my family and I are so grateful for their hard work. We are so thankful they were able to get us a good outcome. I would recommend them to anyone who wants the best. Nobody wants to be in a position to need the help of an attorney, but if you or a loved one has been injured, you should definitely give Mark and Michael a call.

Attorney took the awesome approach of informing and educating my husband and I as her clients. She educated us of our rights as well as positioning us in the best way possible to get the most out of our case. S
he took great initiative and anticipated our needs. Her communication style and frequency was appropriate and balanced - we always heard from her when we needed to.
Once we retained her, she immediately began working on our behalf, freeing us from the need to speak with claim adjusters who were not working in our interest.
She was a great negotiator and used her skills, experience, and influence to maximize our settlement.

Unlike other attorneys I've worked with, John was genuinely empathetic & compassionate, extremely communicative & accessible throughout, and professional without being stuffy. I was pleasantly surprised that he got my case resolved so quickly, with an outcome that exceeded my expectations. Office staff are very pleasant & happy to assist at all times. I highly recommend John & his practice, to my family & friends!

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.

- 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.

- 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.

Ensure you receive a clear explanation of all potential fees and expenses before proceeding with your case.
