Were you neglected by your physician?

Did you know that the failure to diagnose a problem is one of the most widespread types of medical malpractice? The Institute of Medicine says that medical blunders are responsible for nearly 100 thousand fatalities annually. Have your questions from a personal injury lawyer.

I think my physician might have missed something. What can I do?

In a case where a physician was not able to interpret symptoms of a virus in a six-month-old baby, the end result was a seizure disorder and mental handicaps.  Lawyers at Weitz & Luxenberg, the largest personal injury law firm in New York, pursued a case for the child and her family.  The family received damages amounting to eight million dollars.
