A large percentage of hospital staff training and duties involve the prevention of hospital-acquired infections, like methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
When nurses, doctors, nurses’ aides, and other medical facility staff fail to prevent, identify and/or treat infections, patients can suffer severe illnesses, injuries, and even wrongful death. Survivors or survivors’ families can often file a successful medical malpractice claim to hold negligent parties responsible and for financial compensation.

D LJuly 9, 2024 Tom Giuffra was effective and professional on my recent case; he got a better outcome than I was hoping. Very positive experience and highly recommend. Richard KennedyMay 3, 2024 I would recommend Edward Ruffo to the highest degree possible for anyone in need of a top-notch medical malpractice lawyer. Over the past six years, he has provided me with exceptional service and support. From day one, Mr Ruffo was incredibly attentive, always taking the time to explain complex legal processes in a way that I could understand. Moreover, he even gave me his personal cell phone. Allowing me to reach out, whenever I had questions or needed further clarity. What truly sets Mr Ruffo apart though, is how tirelessly he fought on my behalf. He went above and beyond in all matters, and allowed me to focus on my health while he took care of the rest. If you're looking for a lawyer who will truly go the extra mile for you, look no further.

He also demonstrated a strong ability and willingness to listen, displayed an excellent knowledge of the law, possesed excellent communication skills, was very patient, hardworking and persevering. His expertise in the area of law that he practices is superb. He is informative and is available whenever I need to speak to him or his staff. Any information imparted to me is easy to comprehend and explained in understandable terms. Mr Ruffo has worked tirelessly on my mother's case and everyone at his firm has been kind, patient and supportive. Mr Ruffo's paralegal , Nathalia Eusebio is one of the most kindhearted and personable people that I have ever had the priviledge of talking to. I cannot wait to meet her in person.
