According to a Harvard University study, as many as 120,000 people die each year as the result of medical errors committed in hospitals. Many more — more than 1 million annually by some estimates — suffer injuries as a result of mistakes caused by doctors, anesthesiologists, residents, nurses, technicians and malfunctioning medical devices both in hospitals and at other settings, such as doctors' offices or nursing homes. Many never know their injury was due to medical error.
But investigations by the lawyers at Cohen, Placitella & Roth into such cases often reveals malpractice, including failure to timely diagnose disease (inattention to patients), a surgical error, or incorrectly prescribed medications. The results are often catastrophic. Patients suffer injuries ranging from birth defects to brain damage to death.
In cases in which medical professionals have failed to meet the "standard of care," Cohen, Placitella & Roth's highly trained attorneys — including a doctor — have won many recoveries for our clients. If a medical professional's negligence has caused you to suffer a physical injury, that person and their employer can be held accountable.
