Historic Victory in Challenging Surgical Malpractice Claim
“A new client, Ms. Elena Ramirez, retained Robert Silverstein Law, P.C. after suffering serious complications from what was thought to be a routine surgery to remove her gallbladder. Despite her repeated concerns with the symptoms she was experiencing, her complaints were discounted and the true problem was not identified until it became a life-threatening infection requiring emergency surgery. Faced with increasing medical expenses and permanent health issues, she turned to us. Our extensive investigation revealed failures in pre-operative treatment and deficiencies in post-operative treatment. Robert Silverstein collaborated with top medical professionals to form the case against the hospital, discovering inaccuracies in the hospital’s records and creating a clear timeline of negligence which formed our case. After months of settlement negotiations, the hospital’s insurer initially made an undervalued settlement offer. Ms. Ramirez would accept nothing less than what she deserved, so litigation commenced. The case ended when a jury awarded Ms. Ramirez a verdict in the seven-figure range for medical expenses and future care, as well as pain and suffering damages. Ms. Ramirez can now focus on continuing her healing process, secure in the knowledge that justice has been done.”
Compensation for Family Following Birth Injury
“The Smith family reached out to us at Robert M. Silverstein Law, P.C. after realizing their newborn son, Noah, had suffered a brain injury that was preventable. The hospital did not respond to fetal distress and did not perform a c-section until it was too late, resulting in permanent neurological damage.
From the start, we took a collaborative and compassionate approach, having pediatric neurologists and obstetricians review the medical records to determine where basic protocols were neglected and helping us on a long road of litigation. Robert Silverstein personally walked the Smiths through every legal step to ensure they were satisfied with the process and could exercise their voice.
After months of negotiation, we were successfully able to obtain a settlement to cover Noah’s medical and educational expenses over his lifetime. The Smiths have peace of mind knowing that their son’s future is secured. Their success story is a shining example of how our firm is committed to serving as an advocate for those most in need of protection.”
Holding a Physician Accountable in a Misdiagnosis Lawsuit
Mr. John Lee, a 52-year-old business executive, suffered extensive heart tissue damage when his primary care physician evaluated cardiac symptoms as related to severe acid reflux. Unfortunately, by the time the true diagnosis was made, the damage was irreversible, significantly limiting his ability to work and enjoy life.
Robert Silverstein Law, P.C. performed an extensive medical study and consulted with cardiologists on proximate cause for the delayed diagnosis and subsequent damage to Mr. Lee’s heart. Despite aggressive insurance company defenses, we established a direct, documented line of missed opportunities for early diagnosis and treatment.
Based upon our established misconduct arguments in mediation, we negotiated a settlement which compensated Mr. Lee for lost income, ongoing treatment, and emotional distress. In addition to the merits of the settlement, the lawsuit remedied deficient diagnostic protocols and processes by the medical group on behalf of future patients.
Overcoming Challenges in Negligence Lawsuit Against Major Hospital
Our client, Ms. Priya Patel, endured a serious infection following an outpatient procedure due to a hospital’s failure in maintaining sterile technique. The hospital denied liability, asserting that the infection was an inherent risk of the procedure. Unfazed, Robert Silverstein painstakingly compiled information concerning staff training and expert testimony that revealed deviations from established norms.
The case was hotly contested with the defense attempting to stall the process. In the end, we prevailed. On the day before trial, the hospital’s attorneys consented to a confidential settlement covering our client’s outstanding medical bills, loss of earnings, and other damages. This case demonstrates our firm’s resolve in pursuing even the most difficult cases against powerful institutions.
