Why our law firm is the right chose to represent you

In 2006, we were able to get $6.15 million to a Rockland County resident whose baby was seriously injured at the hands of a negligent pediatrician. The infant developed brain damage because the doctor failed to diagnose meningitis in a timely manner. Our attorneys narrowed in on exactly what the problem was, who was accountable, and was able to get our client the compensation she deserved.

“It is shocking to think that a pediatrician would withhold antibiotics to such a sick baby. There can be no good explanation, especially since the results were so very tragic,” said Allan Zelikovic, the head of the Weitz & Luxenberg’s Medical Malpractice Unit.

The compensation awarded to this child’s family will go towards providing needed care for the rest of the child’s life.
