wonderful support in a dental malpractice case

Dane was supportive, kind and knowledgeable in his handling of my dental malpractice case against a very well respected dentist whom no one else was willing to challenge, in spite of the fact that I was not the first person injured by this dentist. He kept me informed and offered well thought out ad...vice.

Truly cares and gives you his all!

Dane and his office have been amazing. They kept me informed and didn't mind my million questions. He is knowledgeable, sympathetic, hard working, and an all around wonderful person. He helped me through a terrible situation and was extremely honest throughout the process.

Dane Levey-Dental malpractice settlement

Mr. Levey always kept me informed and properly advised me of what I should expect. He is very knowledgeable and experienced in dental malpractice. He counseled me as to the strength of my case and advised me as to what point we should settle and what value to expect. He proved to be a skilled nego...tiator in the pre-selletment conference, avoiding the expense and time of a trial.

Overall Dane Levy is an excellent lawyer. He is very knowledgeable in dental malpractice. After weeks of having both of my wisdom teeth extracted, the left side of my tongue remained numb. I was worried and concerned that something might have gone wrong from the extraction. I started doing some r...esearch and found that what happened to me was a result of dental malpractice. The Oral surgeon had accidentally cut my lingual nerve which caused my tongue to tingle, remain numbed, and have burning sensation. So I did some more research and found that there was only a limited of specialized lawyers in the US that could help me with my conditions and getting compensated for what happened to me. Dane's name came up first so I contacted Dane and he directed me to see a lingual nerve specialist who informed me that my nerves were cut during the wisdom tooth extraction. I was sad to learn that I will have a permanent lost of 80% of sensation to the left side of my tongue, permanent numbness, and no taste even after a oral repair surgery to the nerve. Once everything was in motion Dane pretty much took care of all the legal aspects of the case. I didn't do much except went to my appointments and made sure I did my part. The process took about a good year and half and I was surprised that everything went smoothly. In addition, during the course of the case I went through numerous crisis and Dane was understanding and very supportive. Although I have a permanent lost to various sensations to the left side of my tongue, I'm very pleased with the outcome of the case and hope my review is helpful to other future clients.

Mr. Levy was always professional and knowledgeable about our case. He understood what had to be proved and methodically went through the steps to prove the Doctor acted negligently. His office was equally helpful and took the time to answer all our questions at each phase of the case.
