If you believe that you or a loved one was injured by medical malpractice, the idea of filing a medical malpractice lawsuit can be overwhelming.

NEW YORK MEDICAL MALPRACTICE RESULTS YOU CAN TRUST

At Smiley & Smiley, LLP, we have decades of experience securing millions of dollars for families with fatal accident claims and medical malpractice accident victims such as:

• Our law firm secured $3.75 million for a family who lost a husband and father after a urologist failed to notify them of prostate biopsy results that were positive for cancer.
• We secured $1.85 million for a family after a gynecologist failed to order the required chemotherapy treatment for a woman diagnosed with ovarian cancer. After 18 months, the cancer spread and the woman passed away from metastatic ovarian cancer.
• Our client had a standard in-office surgical procedure, which was performed incorrectly. This caused our client to lose sensation and function of his arm. The defendant agreed to settle the case for $1.2 million.
• Our client suffered permanent brain damage after doctors failed to diagnose and treat a brain aneurysm. We obtained an out-of-court settlement of $2.25 million.
• Our client's family member was just 39 years old when doctors failed to diagnose sarcoidosis. The doctors overlooked standard procedures and avoided performing a routine X-ray. We obtained a $1.5 million award for our client.
• Our 52-year-old client suffered the loss of his voice box, after his doctor failed to diagnose laryngeal cancer. We secured $775,000 for our client, after proving the cancer could have been treated successfully if it was diagnosed in a timely manner.
• Our 35-year-old client sustained an eye injury that required treatment and follow-up care by an ophthalmologist. The ophthalmologist failed to take appropriate measures and failed to diagnose that the retina detached. We were able to secure $1.29 million after our client became blind in one eye.
