Information useful; but very complicated case.
Mr. Bower did give me information that is helpful; although given how complicated the case is, his best advice was to get a lawyer who was well versed in medical diagnosis / treatment cases. He also answered the question in regards to statute of limitations. The major question with my son's case ...

Helpful and Detailed
In an unexpected situation we were unsure how to go about a solution and if we should start looking for an attorney.

Fast and accurate answers - trustworthy.
I consulted with Mark, back and forth a few different times. He was pleasant and provided solid informative information which made it easier for me to act on - If need I would recommend him to others as well as to use him myself.

Best of the best
Mark Bower is a brilliant, generous and talented lawyer. I have know him for over 30 years, and I would recommend him without any reservation. He is dedicated to his clients and the betterment of the legal profession.
"I endorse this lawyer. Mark and I worked at the same high profile firm in the '90's. Even then, Mark enjoyed a reputation as one of the very best medical malpractice practitioners in the State of New York. Since then Mark has only succeeded in enhancing and burnishing his reputation, as well as taking it to other jurisdictions. Mark is respectfully known as "the Professor" by many of his colleagues owing to his encyclopedic knowledge of his areas of concentration. If you have a medical malpractice case, I can think of no better lawyer to consult than Mark Bower."
