Another seven figure (million dollar) success for another client of Meyerson & Miller.
We just recently resolved a wrongful death/medical malpractice case in New Jersey arising from the negligent use of a heart lung bypass machine and the failure of the hospital personnel to properly monitor the patient while he was on the heart lung bypass machine. When the heart lung bypass machine malfunctioned, the patient bled to death. The result was only accomplished because Meyerson & Miller retained well qualified specialists in cardiothoracic surgery and perfusion (blood management during serious surgery).
Our firm specializes in and has developed a particularly impressive track record in achieving large financial verdicts/settlements from the successful prosecution of Wrongful Death Cases. Most noticeably: deaths due to an unsafe pharmaceutical product or nutritional supplement, death due to medical or prescription errors and/or medical malpractice, death due to dangerous property defects, fatal automobile accident due to a drunk driver, and death due to dangerous property defect and condition
Wrongful death claims are brought on behalf of the Estate of a person whose death was caused by a devastating, catastrophic underlying legal event like negligence, accident, product failure or medical malpractice. A wrongful death claim is based on an underlying civil wrong which has tragic results for the decedent, family members and children. A case is filed against the manufacturer or the tortfeasor ("wrongdoer") on behalf of the decedent's Estate and heirs.
A wrongful death lawsuit may provide all the financial security surviving family members ever have
At the law firm of Meyerson & Miller, we devote special attention and resources to such cases. Our lawyers recognize that such wrongful death and survivor claims often provide the only vehicle for financial security for family members following a devastating loss. We personally prepare and try such cases anywhere in the country. We are currently involved in several significant wrongful death cases including:
- the death of a dialysis patient who received a contaminated dose of Heparin;
- the death of a 39 year-old woman because her physicians prescribed a dangerous prescription drug despite the fact that she had an underlying heart condition;
- a case on behalf of a woman in her early 30's who died as a result of birth control patch manufacturer's failure to provide adequate warnings in conjunction with the sale of their product;
- and a construction site accident that killed a laborer who was a husband and father.
