Medical Malpractice
- Philip Freidin and Randy Rosenblum along with co-counsel Mark Poses obtained a $38 million verdict for twin boys who were rendered blind due to the defendant doctor's malpractice after they were born premature. The lawyers at Freidin & Dobrinsky proved to a Ft. Myers jury that had the doctor properly screened and diagnosed the two infants, their sight would have been saved.
- M.N. v. Miami Children's Hospital - $12.7 million verdict for a 5-year-old child who sustained brain injury as a result of negligent care.
- Goldberg v. Lipkin - $2.2 million verdict for the Broward family of a victim of medical malpractice resulting from a failure to diagnose and hospitalize the patient in a timely fashion based on a single phone call to the family doctor who failed to carefully listen to the patient's wife.
- Soto v. Palm Springs Hospital - $2 million verdict for the parents of a 12 year old child who died as a result of emergency room negligence. The hospital staff mistakenly believed the child's ER symptoms were drug induced. We proved they should have suspected, diagnosed and treated a brain hemorrhage, which would have saved her life.
- Louis v. Barhoush - $1.8 million medical malpractice verdict on behalf of a brain-injured infant from Belle Glade. To our knowledge, this was the first million-dollar-plus verdict in Florida ever awarded to a Haitian.
- Massar v. Phillips - $1 million medical malpractice verdict for the parents of an 18-year-old girl from Stuart who, after being hit by a drunk driver and severely fracturing her leg, died from a blood clot. We proved that the clot should have been prevented by her doctors.
Personal Injury / Wrongful Death
- Calvin v. Metro-Dade - $1.1 million verdict for a customs worker who suffered brain injury due to carbon monoxide poisoning from a faulty air conditioning system at Miami International Airport. Through tireless investigation, we obtained evidence that revealed that the airport had carelessly located the fresh air conditioning intake units in the lower drive pickup area, which was a ready source of carbon monoxide.
Premises Liability
- Dailey v. Eagle Army-Navy - $1.2 million verdict for a store customer who was pistol-whipped on the head by a security guard. Our client was only momentarily dazed and walked away. Three months later, he suffered a stroke. The defense used conventional medical evidence to vehemently argue against there being a connection between the blow and the stroke three months later. FREIDIN · DOBRINSKY prevailed with evidence that convinced the jury that the injury was caused by the act of the guard.
Miscellaneous
