Significant six-figure recovery

A young boy from Uniontown, Fayette County, suffered a burn to his leg during surgery at a hospital in Pittsburgh. The surgery was being done to fix a leg fracture that happened in a bicycle accident. We filed a medical malpractice claim against the hospital on the ground that the electric pad was not placed properly during the surgery nor was it watched closely enough to prevent a burn from occurring. We obtained a significant six-figure recovery on behalf of this child.
