Theodore Araujo, Medical malpractice Attorney on Feb 9, 2012
Relationship: Worked together on matter
I endorse this lawyer and his firm. In a prior firm I defended a case where our client was a co-defendant, who was not responsible for the injury to Mr. DeFrancisco's client. We came to an accord after showing his firm that the use of the medical equipment, and not our device, were the cause of the injury. They were very open to EVIDENCE, unlike some firms, and their client benefitted from the cooperation. I refer cases to this firm and they are always handled without complaint and to great effect. If I had a relative who had a potential medical malpractice claim, this is the firm to whom i would refer them.
