Medical Malpractice
McGivney Kluger Clark & Intoccia’s attorneys have extensive experience in the defense of doctors, hospitals, nursing homes, dentists and related health care providers.
Ranging from OB/GYN, to neurology, surgery, anesthesia, urology, orthopedics, infectious disease, brain damaged infants, critical care, nursing and hospital liability, the attorneys at MKCI cover the wide spectrum of medical liability claims. Our success in these areas comes from in-depth reviews and analyses of medical records, a group of renowned medical experts to draw upon, success in pretrial disposition of cases through well prepared summary judgment motions, and the ability to prevail in trials of even the most complex medical malpractice cases.
From the representation of the private Attending Physicians at the State University Hospital system, to those in contractual hospital affiliated practice groups, to physicians in private practice, the firm is well versed in the different professional relationship between hospitals and the physicians.
Knowing that prevention of claims is the best defense, our attorneys have lectured to medical students and Interns, as part of their continuing medical-legal education, on the topics of malpractice avoidance.
MKCI also is experienced in the defense of claims against nursing homes, their employees and physicians, including the ever changing legal landscape brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic.
This experience extends to insurance coverage questions and overlaps of coverage between physicians, physician practice groups and hospitals.
In addition, MKCI’s attorneys have extensive successful experience in medical malpractice trials and pursuit of appellate issues.
