- Medical Malpractice and Personal Injury
|
| |
McCarthy Fingar's approach to Medical Malpractice and Personal
Injury lawsuits begins and ends with sensitivity and respect
for the plight of severely injured, ill, and often grieving
clients. Each potential case is patiently and meticulously
investigated and screened for merit through a comprehensive
review of records, medical and scientific research, and consultation
with leading experts in the fields in question. Cases that
are found to have merit are aggressively prosecuted. Each
case is prepared for trial, a process that includes exhaustive
discovery; preparation of the legal and technical aspects
of the case; and numerous meetings with client and family
members. Most are not disposed of until jury selection, and
an average of one to three cases each year are tried to verdict.
Cases that are successfully resolved often generate very significant
recoveries. Our work on such cases is not concluded until
individualized plans for investment and protection of the
clients’ funds are finalized. |
- Medical Malpractice Cases
|
Medical Malpractice is a particularly challenging field.
Few lawyers in the Hudson Valley, Westchester County or New
York City have experience and qualifications to match those
of McCarthy Fingar partner, Joseph
J. Brophy. As indicated by his representative
cases, Joe has had numerous successful lawsuits involving
different types of doctor or hospital errors, including misdiagnosis or delayed treatment of cancer, drug and medication errors, surgical and anesthesia complications, emergency medicine treatment, birth injuries and wrongful death cases. |
| |
| Personal Injury cases may arise from a wide variety of
acts of negligence. Some of the more common lawsuits arise
from car accidents, slip and fall incidents, and dangerous
products. The court system and juries have increasingly cooled
to personal injury lawsuits in recent years, particularly
in so-called conservative jurisdictions such as Westchester
County. Choosing a law firm, like McCarthy Fingar, with extensive
experience in Westchester, can help improve the chances of
success. |
| |
| Legal Malpractice lawsuits have increased as law practice
has become more complex. Such cases may arise from a missed
statute of limitations, a late filing, failure to sue the
proper party, errors in preparing documents, or mishandling client funds, to give just a few examples. McCarthy Fingar’s
expertise in a wide range of legal specialties is a unique
asset for the lawers in the firm's Legal Malpractice group. Our Legal Malpractice lawyers have
not only successfully represented clients in cases arising from a wide variety of situations, but have
also served as expert witesses on behalf of both lawyers and
clients in legal malpractice litigation. |
