George E. Ilodi, DO

Steve was amazing! The legal system is unfamiliar territory for me but Steve was great walking me through the process. He explained things every step and what to expect at every juncture. My particular case actually went to trial and through his hard work, the jury returned a verdict in our favor aft...er taking only 45 mins to deliberate! I would definitely recommend him to anyone. I hope I never have to go through this process again but if by some chance I do, Steve Hupp is who I’m going to.

The Tom Brady of medmal defense

Words not sufficient to describe the outstanding job Steve did in defending and WINNING the case.The preparation,the prep of my self and experts,his strategy in court,his ability to cross examine and his closing arguments were truly exceptional . In crunch time you want him with the ball in his hands.... Tom Brady and a little General Patton.

Amazing

My case was a wrongful death allegation in a morbidly obese patient who presented with chest pain and died of a saddle pulmonary embolism one week after a cath showed a 90% LAD lesion. Mr Hupp knew all the details of the case and all the medicine. He prepared me so well for my cross examination that ...I was very confident despite having almost no courtroom experience. He brought in literally world class medical experts. There were four other defendants in the case and the other attorneys followed Mr Hupp's lead to a unanimous verdict for the defense. His cross examination of the plaintiffs expert witness made a clinical professor of emergency medicine look foolish and insincere to the jury. I hope I never need his professional assistance again, but if I am ever in need of representation in the future I cannot imagine choosing a different attorney. He made the entire process as painless as it could be.

First Class

Steve is first class. It was my first case and trial and he walked me through every step. I felt I was more prepared by trial time than anyone else in the room. Steve has been around the medical field long enough to have excellent medical knowledge making my case prep and discussions very easy. He ha...s a great combination of medical malpractice experience and passion for his profession. I would highly recommend him and if needed, I would absolutely use him again.

Excellent!

Steve Hupp is an excellent trial lawyer. He took a complex medical malpractice case with a high trial risk and distilled it to a level the jury could understand completely. He brought superb experts to the trial that were able to credibly define standard of care in complex matters and refute plain...tiff claims. He knows the law in all its nuances and is aggressively competitive. He expertly out maneuvered plaintiffs attorney's tactics. After a long trial we received a unanimous jury verdict within 50 minutes. I highly recommend Steve Hupp without reservation.
