This medical malpractice case, culminating in a $1,200,000 settlement, highlights the devastating consequences of delayed medical care and the tenacious advocacy required to overcome aggressive insurance tactics. When a multi-care medical facility neglected to provide timely and essential treatment for a blocked artery in our client's leg, it tragically resulted in an avoidable amputation.
Client’s case
A multi-care medical facility delayed critical testing and treatment of a lower leg artery blockage, eventually leading to a below the knee amputation. For years, there was a refusal of the doctor’s insurance company to make any offer until we prepared for trial. The defense mounted against was our client’s pre-existing condition claimed to have required the amputation even without prompt intervention. The case settled in Orange County before jury selection.
