Misdiagnosis

If something happens to your eye, it makes all the sense in the world to receive medical care. When your doctor gives you a diagnosis, you trust them. You have to. Should you or someone you love be misdiagnosed, you may deserve compensation. In one of their record-setting wins, a client who complained to doctors that she was suffering with pain and nausea was sent home as a victim of the flu. Unfortunately, she actually had “acute angle-closure glaucoma.” That can be cured if diagnosed early, but alas, she was not, losing her sight. Representing her meant an honor for the firm, and they were proud to have won her a settlement that may end up being almost three times more than the previous record for damages. 

 

Surgical Errors 

When you go to a surgeon, they have a true “duty of care” to you. They’re supposed to do everything they can to make sure that your surgery goes as well as possible. Should that result in malpractice, they can help. For example, a New York County jury awarded $5 million to a client of theirs who lost vision in one eye due to an infection. That infection was caused by unsterile conditions during retinal surgery. While most cases don’t go to trial, they are always honored and glad to be able to represent their clients in court. 

 

Failure to Inform 

Often, they’ll have potential clients reach out to them who are uncertain as to whether or not they have a case. Plenty of times, a person who didn’t think they had a case actually does. For one, if a doctor doesn’t make you aware of the risks associated with a procedure, then you undergo the procedure and are injured, you may deserve compensation. For example, a client of theirs was awarded $800,000 for a “massive over-correction” in their eye, going from extreme nearsightedness to extreme farsightedness.
