Large six-figure recovery

A young man from McKeesport was undergoing laparoscopic knee surgery at a Pittsburgh hospital. When he woke up from the surgery, part of his right hand was paralyzed. We filed a claim arguing that the anesthesia staff had not properly positioned the man’s arm and hand during the surgery and, as a result, permanent nerve damage was done to the hand. We filed a medical malpractice claimand obtained a large six-figure recovery.
