New York City Medical Malpractice Lawyer - Medical

Rubenstein & Rynecki obtained the largest New York medical malpractice and negligence settlement in 2012 for a woman whose hands and feet were amputated $17.9 Million

The attorneys at the Brooklyn-based law firm Rubenstein & Rynecki have more than 40 years of experience fighting for maximum awards for victims of medical malpractice cases. The law firm handles medical malpractice cases in the fields of:

Misdiagnosis of disease Failure to diagnose infection Anesthesia mistakes Nursing home neglect Instruments left in body during surgery Ophthalmology Orthopedics Neurology Stroke Erb's palsy/Cerebral palsy Failure to diagnose cancer Defective plastic surgery

Defective medical devices Surgical errors Wrongful death Obstetrics Gynecology Internal medicine Birth injuries Brain injuries Death caused by medical malpractice Emergency room negligence Failure to diagnose breast cancer Dental malpractice

By definition, medical malpractice occurs as a result of negligence by a professional health care provider, which can lead to more serious health complications or death.  New York doctors and patients alike are concerned with the potential for mistakes to lead to such complications.

Every medical procedure requires skill, sanitation, and proper aftercare, as one misstep can lead to complications and increased risks for patients.  Even if procedures are handled appropriately, patients may be subject to unexpected results due to misinformation.  If a doctor, surgeon, or medical staff member fails to warn patients or family members of any potential risks, attorneys can help victims seek compensation.

When healthcare professionals fail to provide an appropriate standard of care, your health is at risk.  The process to recover damages may seem overwhelming, but with the help of NY attorneys, you may be able to bring a case against the individuals who are responsible for your mistreatment. If you or someone you know has suffered as the result of a medical malpractice incident, contact Rubenstein & Rynecki today for a free consultation. No recovery, no fee.
