Significant six-figure settlement

A 70-year-old retiree from Butler, PA, suffered a serious chemical burn to his hand while he was a patient at a hospital in Shadyside. An IV line containing the chemical was placed incorrectly, and it caused the chemical to burn the skin. In addition to having permanent scars, the function of his hand never returned to normal. A significant six-figure settlement award was obtained for him as a result of the medical malpractice claim we filed.
