A few years ago, I was misdiagnosed when a pathologist failed to identify cancer in a biopsy. When the cancer was finally diagnosed two years later, it had spread and my prognosis had worsened. He [Attorney Halpern] filed a suit on my behalf and pursued the case vigorously and skillfully . . . Not only did he negotiate and obtain a generous settlement for me, but he gave me a sense of justice for the doctor’s negligence. My son and I are grateful to Attorney Halpern and would wholeheartedly recommend his firm and services to anyone in need.

Winning Maximum Compensation for Clients

Cancer. It's a word no one wants to hear from a doctor. If you do have to fight cancer, it's essential to get a correct diagnosis right away. When a primary care doctor, a radiologist or a pathologist misinterprets test results, or fails to perform the right tests in the first place, the result can be fatal.

A prognosis that would have been fairly good is now grim due to an act of medical malpractice. I have won millions of dollars for clients in pursuit of claims against doctors for failing to diagnose bowel obstructions, cancers, coronary conditions, infections and other diseases.

Discovering the Source of the Error of Doctors

A failure to diagnose cancer and other illnesses can occur in a variety of ways. A doctor may misdiagnose a condition or a radiologist could miss a tumor during a screening or mammogram. A pathologist may make a mistake on test results and health care professionals may simply fail to respond to a patient's complaints or symptoms.

I have the experience and resources necessary to effectively investigate cases involving failure to diagnose cancer and other conditions. In many circumstances, I am able to uncover evidence that proves a life-threatening case of cancer could have been detected and treated if caught in time.
