Preparing for a Fight
There is a high burden of proof under New Jersey law to even file a lawsuit, and medical malpractice cases commonly go all the way to trial. Our experienced trial lawyers prepare every case as if we will need to convince a jury to award damages. Our team includes four Board-certified trial specialists, nurses in various specialties and paralegals who handle only medical negligence cases.
We bring in top medical experts in obstetrics, oncology, radiology, surgery, pharmacology and other fields of medicine to analyze the records and testify that the physicians, nurses, pharmacist or other staff made the wrong decision, missed telltale symptoms or failed to follow standard medical protocols.
Martin Kane Kuper is known for several large awards and high-profile cases in New Jersey, and we have and are representing several doctors and their families in matters where they themselves have been the victims of medical negligence. Many of our referrals come from clients who appreciated our genuine compassion and our fight to the end to maximize compensation. We work closely with victims and families to support them through this difficult process and determine their full financial and medical needs. In all cases, we do our utmost to answer those questions left unanswered by the medical practitioners and provide our clients and prospective clients with explanations of events and circumstances that others have left unaddressed.
From a delayed cancer diagnosis to the failure of nurses to care for their patients, our firm is committed to holding doctors and medical facilities accountable. Contact us if you suspect medical malpractice. We offer a free case evaluation at 1-877-NJLAW4U, or contact us online today.
