OUTCOME: $1.7 million during trial for New York businessman with undiagnosed organ damage

A New York businessman was prescribed medication which caused major organ damage. His doctors failed to diagnose the serious condition leading to a malpractice trial.

Nassau County Man with Undiagnosed Kidney Disease

N/A

OUTCOME: $1.1 Million Malpractice Settlement

Failure to diagnose kidney disease in a 39-year-old accountant, a married father of young children, resulted in a $1.1 million settlement just before jury selection. We suspected that the doctor had t ... ampered with his medical records after he found out that his patient was seriously ill. Our forensic document analysis showed gross tampering with the medical records. We were prepared to prove the truth of all of this in court, but defense lawyers and insurance company agreed to a settlement on the eve of trial, rather than let the case go to a jury.
