San Francisco Personal Injury Lawsuits
A Case Example
At the Law Office of Michael and Michelle Mandel, we help people who are injured as a result of negligence or the careless actions of another. The following case shows a real-life example of how a personal injury attorney can help.
A 55-year old San Francisco woman underwent a procedure to have a bunion removed from her right foot. The procedure was not successful, and as a result, her big toe angled outward and was very painful. She returned to the same hospital, several months later, to have the same procedure performed on her left foot. Again, the result was bad, and she then had painful deformities on both feet. Follow-up treatments could not correct the conditions.
San Francisco medical malpractice attorney Michael Mandel evaluated this woman's case. In light of the bad result from the first procedure, he concluded that the second procedure should not have been performed. The case went before an arbitrator, who agreed with Mr. Mandel, and decided that the deformities were permanent. The woman was awarded $175,000 for her pain and suffering.
As San Francisco personal injury attorneys, we work hard to secure fair compensation for Bay Area residents in claims involving motor vehicle accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, bike accidents, pedestrian accidents, public transportation claims, medical malpractice, nursing home neglect and product liability.
