Medical / Professional Malpractice

Serving New Jersey

When a doctor or any other medical professional make a mistake, lives hang in the balance. Families deserve compensation when medical malpractice leads to a catastrophic injury or wrongful death .

LePore Luizzi helps families who have suffered from medical malpractice. Our lawyers offer free consultations and in many cases do all work on contingency, charging no attorneys’ fees until a settlement or verdict is won.

We handle cases involving the following:

• Failure to diagnose a medical condition
• All Surgical errors
• Plastic surgery mistakes
• Nursing mistakes
• Hospital negligence
• Drug dispensing errors
• Emergency room errors
• Birth injury
• Dental negligence

Medical Malpractice cases are very difficult to analyze and for this reason you need to have a knowledgeable attorney review the case on your behalf. Generally, in order to prove a medical malpractice case you need another doctor from the same medical specialty to review the case and conclude within a reasonable degree of medical certainty that your doctor committed malpractice. The reviewing doctor gets paid regardless if there is a case or not and for this reason we are selective in the cases we accept. However, we offer free consultations and invite you to let us review your case and give you our professional opinion.

Defective Medical Device Product Liability

When doctors or other medical professionals use or prescribe medical devices that are defective, the doctor or medical professional and the manufacturer of the product may be liable for any damages caused by the defect. Examples of such devices are hip implants, knee implants, shoulder implants, as well as any other medical implants or devices used by doctors or medical professionals. Mr. Luizzi has successfully handled and settled a defective medical device case about defective hip implants for two clients that received a combined settlement totaling over $780,000.00.

Other Professionals

Doctors are not the only professionals who make mistakes. Accountants, Architects, Engineers, Insurance Agents, Realtors and other professionals can make mistakes that cost you thousands of dollars. If that professional did not follow the accepted standard of care in his or her industry they may have committed professional malpractice. If the professional did commit malpractice you are entitled to sue him or her for any losses you sustained as a result of the mistake. As with medical malpractice cases, a professional malpractice case is more complicated than your average negligence case and you should have it reviewed by a professional.
