Client Testimonials
Our Clients Rave About Their Results-
They were always available quickly, to address my concerns. Having dealt with some law firms before, I really appreciated this.
“Steven Raiser's law firm handled my case with excellence throughout the process. I had a SBA EIDL loan that got transferred to the Department of Treasury unexpectedly, and had a 30% penalty added to the amount due, and due very quickly, which was very stressful. After talking with Steven Raiser, and working with Harry Gill, who was absolutely brilliant in working with me and preparing the case, they were able to recall the case to the SBA. They were always available quickly, to address my concerns. Having dealt with some law firms before, I really appreciated this.
Very grateful and appreciative to Steven Raiser and Harry Gill. Great work” -

We Combine Investigation and Litigation Skills
Clearly, most hospitals, doctors, and other medical providers are unlikely to admit their mistakes concerning patients’ care.
Our medical malpractice legal team combines strategy, investigation, and litigation skills to prevail.
We don’t rest until our clients’ medical mistreatments are legally righted.
Although the National Institutes of Health (NIH) reports that medical malpractice laws have evolved in recent decades, a medical malpractice case usually arises when an injured individual, heir, or representative files a claim against the attending physician, rehab center, hospital, medical or health system.
The plaintiff’s medical malpractice lawyer must show four elements, including:
- The patient was due professional duties from the defendant.
- The defendant failed to provide the professional duties it owed the patient.
- The plaintiff (patient) injury occurred because of the defendant’s failure, error, or breach.
- The plaintiff is owed economic compensation in consideration of the quantifiable damages, e.g. hospital or doctor bills.
- The plaintiff may be owed non-economic compensation, addressing his or her current, prior or future pain and suffering because of the provider’s breach, failure, or error.
