Medical Negligence Is a Violation of Trust

Every patient has the legal right to expect competent, careful treatment. When doctors, nurses, or hospitals make preventable errors, the results can be devastating: from permanent injury to wrongful death. In New York, victims of medical malpractice have the right to pursue justice through the courts. Brooklyn is home to some of the largest hospitals and healthcare providers in the state, including NYU Langone, Maimonides Medical Center, and Kings County Hospital. But not all care provided lives up to professional standards. When it doesn’t, The Law Offices of Michael S. Lamonsoff steps in to make things right.
