In failure to timely diagnose and treat stroke
In this age of shifting bar rules and reformed advertising regulations, many lawyers have begun promoting case results on television ads and billboards––many of which show seemingly happy clients, who hardly look injured, thanking their lawyers for a wonderful result. While no simple advertisement concerning case results can truly explain a firm’s skill or whether the result was appropriate for the case, they can be one indicator of any firm’s level of expertise. That said, other factors such as the length of time the firm has been in existence, the types of cases handled by the firm, and the firm’s specialization should also be considered by a client seeking a suitable attorney for their individual case. Below are results in the various types of cases we handle. The majority are medical malpractice matters. As always, if you wish to learn more, we invite your call.
