After delivering opening statements to a rapt Westchester jury, Jim Denlea and Chris Dennis successfully settled a medical malpractice case for $1,000,000. Our client, the victim of surgical malpractice committed by a prominent Hudson Valley surgeon, sustained life-altering damages when the defendant surgeon attempted a procedure that was not recognized in surgical practice, as within any accepted standard of care. While no amount of money can ever make up for the physical and emotional pain and suffering experienced by our client, we were delighted to help hold her physician accountable, and to recover a significant sum to redress her injuries.
Jim Denlea and Craig Cepler recently settled a wrongful termination action on extremely favorable economic terms. Jim and Craig were able to demonstrate that our client’s former employer had ulterior motives for withholding payment of vested commissions to him. The matter was settled just prior to the start of an evidentiary hearing, and results in a significant recovery for the client as he prepares to pursue his next employment opportunity.
