$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.

Nothing says work-life balance like law firm partners, Mike and Pete, slipping out of the office for opening day at Wrigley, only to slip out before the 7th inning stretch. They showed up, made an appearance, and supported their team briefly. Let’s call it a strong opening argument, even if the closings came early.

Here’s to next game with hopefully better results and maybe staying through the final inning.

Birth injuries can change a child’s life forever. In this video, we talk about how birth injuries happen and what families should know if they suspect medical negligence.

Because March is Cerebral Palsy Awareness Month, we also want to help raise awareness of cerebral palsy, a condition that can sometimes be associated with birth complications. 💚

Many patients never learn that their doctor received money for prescribing their medication. How does this impact care?
