Medical Malpractice 25%

Medical malpractice involves acts and/or omissions to act by a medical provider resulting in harm to a patient. This can occur in a hospital or outpatient setting, including but not limited to a physician, nurse, therapist or pharmacist. It can result from an event during surgery to failing to recognize post-operative complications. It can result from a pharmacy improperly filling a prescription.

Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect 25%

Nursing home and neglect is a tragic event caused within a nursing home facility where we entrust the care and treatment of our loved ones. It is as the result of a trip and fall because of improper staffing or supervision resulting in a fracture, failing to re-position or provide proper bedding causing pressure ulcers, malnutrition or actual physical abuse. These non-events should not occur and are avoidable and all nursing homes should be accountable for causing harm to our loved ones.

Slip and Fall Accident 25%

Every property owner must maintain their property in a safe condition. Fix the sidewalk if it is broken r uneven. Shovel and/or salt the sidewalk. Simple steps to protect people who walk upon your sidewalk can prevent slip and fall accidents. If you don't take care of your sidewalk and someone trips or slips and they get hurt, you will be responsible for all resulting harm.

Car Accident 15%

Whether because of distractions or blatant disregard for the Rules of the Road, it is privilege for people to operate vehicles on the roadway. For those who chose to ignore the Rules of the Roadway and cause car wrecks and harm to others should bear all consequences for the failure to properly operate their vehicle.

15%
Birth Injury 10%

There is no greater moment than the joy of giving birth, only to have that moment shattered because a physician, midwife or hospital fails to properly respond to fetal distress and that baby is listless or barely breathing. Why did the hospital not have proper neonatal response team. All of these are questions giving rise to birth injuries that could be prevented or minimized had proper prenatal, delivery and/or post-delivery assessments and protocols been established.

He hates to read.

I mailed my case in advance to Philadelphia for pre review. They asked me to come in. I spent 5 hours round trip, $30 in parking, and gas, to attend. He did not properly greet me, he was constantly distracted, he stated that he hates to read, and eats Ed half my day by having me drive to Philly. He w...as repeatedly dismissive, cut me off, consoled the entire conversation, and then failed to discuss a second case that I have. I’m extremely disappointed with how I was treated, over spoken, and them declined, despite having the case file in front of him. A complete waste of time. How can you represent clients if you hate to read?

Does not respond

I have been a client for over a year now. I would call to give updates regarding my case or call to inquire where we stand. I always get a voicemail and never have my phone calls returned. And this would go on for months on end. It was not until I wanted to switch lawyers and asked to be let out of ...our agreement that I have received a call back. Only to be talked to in an irritated voice. I decided to stay and was told.to call back at a certain point in which I have and now I'm back to just leaving messages with no return calls. I am beyond disappointed with his services.
