$2,200,000.00 & $1,500,000.00 Duffy & Duffy secured two verdicts in one week on behalf of two Suffolk County families, both victims of medical malpractice and negligence.
Duffy & Duffy proved that the first plaintiff’s doctor delayed in properly diagnosing his prostate cancer and failed to refer him to a urologist. By the time the plaintiff was referred, his cancer had advanced to an incurable stage.
In the second trial, Duffy & Duffy demonstrated that an 18 year-old-plaintiff was left with severe arthritis in his shoulder when his doctor was negligent in ordering an MRI and allowed the plaintiff to continue to play football with a previous injury.
As a result, the plaintiffs were awarded $2.2 million and $1.3 million, respectively.
