Ed Zinman handled my dental malpractice case. His knowledge is excellent. His legal writing is excellent. He's not one for hand-holding or spending a lot of time comforting a client, but as for expertise and advocacy, I can't complain. Zinman is a dentist and an attorney. He's definitely the go-to...-guy for dental malpractice.

Dr. Zinman saved my life! In May of 2008, I had severe shock-like stabbing pain that radiated up my jaw. I had a root canal, and a retreatment performed on tooth #30 by an endodontist. While on antibiotics, my pain became more tolerable, but as soon as the antibiotics wore off, the pain returned... with more might. I was misdiagnosed as having trigeminal neuralgia by a neurologist, and told that this pain will be with me for life. It was difficult for me to continue the pain meds for it made me extremely nauseated and dizzy. My face started caving in and an MRI/CT scan showed muscle atrophy (isolated mild wasting to the masseter muscle). The electric shock like pain was becoming more unbearable and I had great difficulty at work and with simple daily living skills at home. I did not know how much longer I could take this pain, this meager existence, and my spirit began to fall. I was referred to Dr. Zinman and he helped guide me through this awful maze. I ended up having tooth #30 removed based upon the results of a special 3d Accuitomo x-ray [this is a cone beam x-ray CT done with 20 microsierverts which is 1% of a medical CT, higher resolution than a medical CT and at $251 including the radiologist's report, a great bargain, it is especially designed for the Dento-Maxillo-Facial area]. I had this test taken at The University of the Pacific in San Francisco - 415-929-6500. After the tooth was removed, my pain completely went away. I highly recommend Dr. Edwin Zinman, for he is extremely knowledgeable, professional, compassionate and a wonderful guide.

Dr. Zinman represented me in a dental malpractice case when no other attorney in my state would. He is not only a top notch attorney but also one who truely cares about his clients and the harm that was done to them. He ALWAYS had my best interest at heart and his fee was NEVER a part of his concer...n. He will always answer your questions (there is no big black hole like with many others), he'll keep you informed and will allow you to make decisions based upon his legal guidance. I don't think more than a handful of days (in over 2 years) ever went by that I didn't hear from him, including weekends. To me, he has forever negated the stereotype of what the public thinks of attorneys. I could not have found a more qualified, more compassionate attorney or friend. I didn't realize how well connected and respected he was until the day I went to my state dental school with him and saw students and faculty tripping all over themselves to meet him! That was when I realized that he is not just any attorney who takes dental malpractice cases but instead a well respected dentist who is also a well respected attorney. As it was recently said in a prominent dental publication, "The last thing you ever want to get is a subpoena from Edwin Zinman". I second that. I am priviledged to have had him on my side and to be able to consider him a friend. His entire staff is as professional and caring as he. They just don't come any better.
