SOME OF ATTORNEY MONE’S RECENT RESULTS
- $2,000,000.00 – Medical Malpractice Settlement – Breast Cancer Delayed Diagnosis on behalf of a University student treated at the University’s medical clinic. The laboratory and university paid the settlement at mediation after two plus years of litigation.
- $20,000,000.00 – Wrongful Death Settlement – Four family members and a claim for serious personal injury on behalf of one survivor. A large 10-wheel tractor truck slammed into our clients’ vehicle causing both vehicles to crash into another oncoming car. Because of a prompt and thorough investigation we were able to establish that truck driver and the trucking company who employed him had both violated several safety regulations.
- $1,200,000.00 – Medical Malpractice Arbitration – Shoulder Dystocia Birth Injury due to medical negligence of the Midwife and Hospital Nurse. We won the case after several days of presenting evidence at a binding arbitration.
- CONFIDENTIAL – Medical Malpractice Settlement – Shoulder Dystocia Birth Injury due to negligence of the midwife and nurse on behalf of the minor child and his parents. The child suffered severe and permanent injury. The case was settled at mediation.
- CONFIDENTIAL – Medical Malpractice – Breast Cancer Delayed Diagnosis on behalf of patient for failure to biopsy resulting in a lost chance of cure and reduced chance of survival. Patient presented with a suspicious lump and was sent home. Several months later the lump was biopsied and found to be cancerous. Case settled after mediation.
- CONFIDENTIAL – Wrongful Death on behalf of a husband of a 71-year old patient who died as a result of the failure to respond to heart rate monitor resulting by nursing staff at local hospital. Case settled after mediation.
- CONFIDENTIAL – Wrongful Death Settlement Emergency Room Doctor failed to admit the Plaintiff to the hospital and failed to administer appropriate intravenous antibiotics for the E. Coli pyelonephritis. Had the E. Coli asymptomatic bacteriuria been properly treated with oral antibiotics to which the E. Coli was sensitive, more likely than not, it would not have progressed to pyelonephritis and urosepsis causing preterm labor and fetal demise.
