This is not your typical library. Most library's have row after row of dusty books sitting on shelves. Not this one. Contained within this library are hundreds and thousands of articles about medical malpractice, accidents and wrongful death. The goal of creating this vast library is to inform you, the consumer, about how these cases work.
I have free reports, hundreds of educational videos, books and much more. All this information will empower you to become better informed consumers and help you decide which attorney is right for you and what you need to do next.
Take your time, read as much as you can, watch the videos and if you have questions, I encourage you to pick up the phone and schedule a phone consultation with me at 516-487-8207.

Orthopedic Intern Testifies in Knee Replacement LawsuitThis is a question and answer session of an orthopedist in training, an intern, who assisted during surgery in a case involving a woman who went in for a 'routine' partial knee replacement.

Turns out the surgeon mis-positioned the hardware and didn't secure the hardware properly using orthopedic cement. Four months later, her partial knee had to be removed and she required a total knee replacement. This could have been avoided had the orthopedist taken intra-operative x-rays to check the positioning of the hardware.
