$2 MILLION MEDICAL MALPRACTICE SETTLEMENT

Matthew Ports and Alex Marsh secured a $2 million settlement in a medical malpractice and wrongful death case involving the tragic death of a patient following surgery.

Our client suffered a critically elevated potassium level postoperatively. The critical result was not timely communicated to a physician therefore emergency measures were not taken. Several hours later, she suffered multiple cardiac arrests and ultimately passed away.

While no settlement can undo the loss of a loved one, accountability can provide families with a measure of justice and help protect their future.

โ˜€๏ธNothing beats summer in Chicagoโ˜€๏ธ

From lakefront rides to neighborhood adventures, e-bikes and e-scooters have become a popular way to enjoy everything our city has to offer. But with more riders on the road comes an increase in serious accidents and injuries.

Before you ride, remember:
โœ”๏ธ Wear a helmet
โœ”๏ธ Stay alert and avoid distractions
โœ”๏ธ Follow traffic laws
โœ”๏ธ Watch for pedestrians, cyclists, and vehicles
โœ”๏ธ Ride at a safe speed

A few extra seconds of caution can help prevent a lifetime of consequences.

At Gill Ports Hoste, weโ€™ve seen firsthand how devastating e-bike and e-scooter crashes can be. Whether youโ€™re riding, driving, or walking, we all have a role to play in keeping Chicagoโ€™s streets safe this summer.

If you or a loved one has been injured in an e-bike or e-scooter accident, weโ€™re here to help.

$1.4M Medical Malpractice Settlement - Wrongful Death of 78-year-old (Lake County, IL)

78-year-old gentleman underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal) on Christmas Day. The general surgeon caused injury to the Common Bile Duct and Left and Right Hepatic Ducts. The injury was discovered days later. Repair was attempted 3 months later but was unsuccessful and the patient died shortly thereafter. The case settled shortly before trial was to start.

At GPH, our team of attorneys have successfully prosecuted (and continue to prosecute) wrongful death cases arising from gallbladder removal surgeries. If you or a loved one suffered significant permanent injury or death due to injuries sustained in gallbladder removal surgery, contact GPH today.
