Medical Malpractice Trial
Verdict in a medical malpractice case in which we represented a husband and wife. A malpractice suit is about more than money, it’s about accountability. The case settled in favor of our client.
As the leading cause of disability, stroke affects over 700,000 people throughout the U.S. every year, approximately 500,000 of which experience it for the first time, while the remaining 200,000 are recurrent cases. In Florida, a stroke claims the life of someone every 3 seconds.
Over 4 million Americans are stroke survivors, currently struggling with the health effects of the condition. Moreover, 14% of survivors will experience another stroke within a year. Strokes can occur at any age, being the third leading cause of death in the U.S. after heart disease and cancer. However, the death rate and disability can be reduced by 30% if the signs of stroke are immediately recognized and treated.
Whether you or a loved one who suffered a stroke as a consequence of misdiagnosis or another medical error in Miami or in another part of Florida, you should know that financial compensation is available for you and can efficiently be recovered from the party at fault by our law firm, which specializes in these types of cases. Contact us and we will gladly review your situation free of charge. The stroke cases we pursue include the following:
Following a stroke that was not promptly attended to or that was not treated at all, the patient can experience severe consequences as follows:
The impact of a stroke on a person and their family members can be hefty since the survivor’s health quality will often be poor. Their loved ones may experience depression and shock, as well as feelings of confusion, helplessness, and guilt. Role changes may also occur – for instance, children will have to be the caregiver of a parent who suffered a stroke and is now disabled.
As stroke is a significant cause of disability, it can end up with you suffering brain damage. Consequently, you should immediately seek medical attention if you notice one or more of the signs and symptoms below. If, however, you experience a stroke because of someone else’s negligence, do not hesitate to contact our law firm so that we can review your case and help you take legal action against the liable party.
We strongly encourage people whose health was affected by a stroke, or their family members, to reach out to our attorney, as they are eligible for financial compensation, which can cover aspects such as:
Because the effects of a stroke can be tremendous both on the survivor and their family members, financial compensation is available and can be recovered by us from the party at fault. Thus, if you find yourself in this situation, please do not hesitate to contact our medical malpractice attorney, Sean M. Cleary, and he will thoroughly review your case.
After your case is carefully assessed, we will handle every legal aspect on your behalf and ultimately obtain compensation. We only charge contingency fees, so you will not pay anything unless we recover financial compensation for you. If we obtain compensation from the defendant, we will retain between 34% and 40% of the total amount you are to receive in exchange for our legal services.
