From Midtown Manhattan to Montauk, patients trust doctors, nurses, and hospitals with their lives. When that trust is shattered by negligence—an avoidable surgical error, a missed cancer diagnosis, a fatal drug interaction—the fallout is devastating. Leitner Warywoda, PLLC is a New York–based personal-injury firm dedicated to holding healthcare providers accountable. Our team combines medical knowledge with courtroom firepower, giving injured patients and grieving families a clear path to justice.

​

Handling the Full Spectrum of Medical Negligence

Medical malpractice can take many forms: surgical mistakes, birth injuries, anesthesia errors, medication overdoses, emergency-room delays, hospital-acquired infections, and wrongful death. Whether the negligence occurred at a large Manhattan teaching hospital, a Long Island community clinic, or a private physician’s office, we dig deep into the records, consult leading experts, and build a case that proves how the standard of care was breached—and how that breach changed your life.

​

Proving Liability in New York Medical Malpractice Cases

New York law requires proof that (1) a provider-patient relationship existed, (2) the provider deviated from accepted medical standards, and (3) that deviation directly caused injury. Our lawyers work with board-certified specialists to translate complex medical data into clear, compelling evidence for judges and juries. We handle all filings, negotiate with insurers, and, when necessary, take hospitals and corporate healthcare systems to trial to secure the compensation our clients deserve for medical bills, lost income, pain, and future care.
