We Obtain Exceptional Results

After being paralyzed while having my spine examined at Overlake Hospital Medical Center, I wanted an advocate who would seek justice for me, and pursue greater accountability. Luvera Law Firm is among the select few with the expertise needed. They earned a settlement in my case, and they understood I wanted to shed light on what happened and to use those lessons to make hospitals everywhere safer for patients. My attorneys helped me form a special working partnership with hospital executives, and now I’m applying my background as a design expert to improve patient safety.

After my mother-in-law, Ellen, received lower back surgery at Valley Medical Center, she complained of terrible pain to the nurses, but they didn’t notify her doctor until it was too late. By the time she got into an operating room, a blood clot had developed in her back and paralyzed her. She contacted Luvera Law Firm, knowing they had the expertise and compassion needed to seek justice. From the beginning, the attorneys and staff treated us with respect, and we developed a feeling of family. Luvera Law Firm stands up for the underdogs – they do right by their clients. Heartbreakingly, Ellen died from her condition before the case concluded, but together we continued her charge and held the hospital accountable.

‘Let’s just watch it,’ my pulmonologist advised. For six years, he negligently failed to diagnose the spot on my lung, instead watching as the cancer metastasized from my left lung to my right. By the time he ordered a needle biopsy that revealed the spot to be cancer, it was too late. The cancer was at stage IV. As a former commercial litigator, I know the power of the justice system. I called Luvera Law Firm because I wanted to make sure my doctor didn’t do this to anyone else. My attorneys were like investigators, examining my medical records and gathering multiple experts to advise on my case. They were passionate about finding the truth, and always so professional and responsive.
