At Leitner Warywoda PLLC, we fight relentlessly for justice—and the past few weeks have underscored that commitment in powerful ways. From holding negligent nursing facilities accountable to securing justice for patients harmed by medical malpractice, our attorneys continue to deliver meaningful results for those who have suffered due to the carelessness of others.
$1.9 Million Medical Malpractice Victory in Brooklyn
Attorney: Nick Warywoda
In a deeply distressing case involving a masopexy (breast lift surgery) gone wrong, our client suffered a severe post-surgical infection requiring multiple corrective surgeries. Our team proved that the plastic surgeon failed to meet the standard of care. After extensive litigation, we secured a $1.9 million settlement for our client in Brooklyn, delivering justice and helping her rebuild.
$1.2 Million Award Against Brooklyn Nursing Facility
Attorney: Daniel Solinsky
We represented the family of an elderly man whose tragic death was caused by egregious neglect in a Brooklyn nursing facility. The staff failed to implement basic pressure-relieving protocols, leading to horrific Stage IV pressure ulcers and an eventual fatal infection. This $1.2 million recovery sends a clear message: neglecting vulnerable residents will not go unpunished.
$575,000 Settlement for 91-Year-Old Fall Victim in Bronx
Attorney: Brett Leitner
In a case that underscores the importance of fall prevention protocols in nursing homes, our 91-year-old client suffered a devastating hip fracture after a preventable fall at a Bronx County facility. Our team secured a $575,000 settlement, holding the facility accountable for its breach of duty.
$790,000 for Patient Injured in Hospital Fall in Nassau County
Attorney: Nick Warywoda
Our client fell and suffered a traumatic head injury while admitted to a Nassau County hospital. We demonstrated that the hospital failed to monitor and safeguard a known fall risk. The $790,000 settlement provides meaningful compensation for the long-term effects of this avoidable injury.
$850,000 for Wrongful Death in Manhattan Rehab Center
Attorney: Nick Warywoda
A patient undergoing inpatient alcohol detox at a Manhattan facility died due to unmonitored cardiac and liver complications—conditions that should have been identified and managed. We held the facility accountable for its failure to monitor the patient during a known high-risk detox period, resulting in a $850,000 medical malpractice recovery.
