How to be a lawyer?

How do I find the best medical malpractice lawyer in NYC?

  • I need to find a medical malpractice lawyer in NYC. How do I find the best one? Recently, a doctor misdiagnosed me and performed an unnecessary procedure. The procedure did not turn out well, and I'm now in a lot of pain. I would like to speak with a lawyer to see if I have a case. I don't even know how to begin my search. There are plenty of sites that are basically directories for lawyers, but none of them give you any idea how good/experienced/successful they are. Likewise, if I google for malpractice lawyers in NYC, I get tons of results, but I don't know how to choose a lawyer. I welcome any advice you have on how to choose a medical malpractice lawyer. Likewise, if you have specific firms or lawyers you would like to recommend, I would appreciate your recommendations.

    If you want to hit me, up by email (username at gmail), I worked for a great med mal attorney in Manhattan for 10 years.

There are two sites that rank laywers that might be helpful:http://www.chambersandpartners.com/guide/usa/5/12806/1, and the http://www.legal500.com/assets/pages/united-states/united-states.html. Neither has a category specifically on medical negligence, but both feature write ups of well regarded firms and lawyers which might help inform your decision. I did used to work for a similar publication, however, and saw up close how sometimes content is recycled year after year, and their research is not always thorough -- so treat them these guides with a little skepticism. I hope you find a good lawyer who helps you get some restitution.
