PDF version of this practice group description.
Few firms in Western New York have had as
much involvement in the defense of professional and medical malpractice
litigation as Damon & Morey LLP. As counsel for many of the nation’s
major insurers along with Buffalo’s most prestigious hospitals and
medical groups, Damon & Morey has represented a great number of
institutions, physicians and other individuals in all types of cases.
The firm is regularly called upon to provide day-to-day legal counseling
on a wide variety of issues in health law and other professional areas.
Our firm employs registered nurse-paralegals to assist in medical
malpractice work. Their credentials are invaluable in obtaining
important medical information and in locating those crucial experts
needed to analyze medical-legal dilemmas and testify on the client’s
behalf.
Risk management is an essential element of our practice. Our attorneys
regularly counsel hospital administrators on the best methods of
preventing litigation while exercising sound medical judgment.
Although we work to avoid litigation whenever possible, our trial
attorneys are highly skilled, aggressive litigators who have long been
recognized in the legal community. Our reputation has proved useful
during settlement negotiations, as our adversaries understand that our
attorneys stand ready to go to trial if an equitable settlement cannot
be reached.
