Over the next three years the lawyers at Berger Lagnese & Paul, LLC aggressively pursued our case. The case eventually went to trial and on May 23, 2008, the jury returned a verdict of $2,500,000 against UPMC Shadyside. The jury also took the unique act of writing a statement blaming Mike’s death on the lack of training and supervision of nurses at UPMC Shadyside. Throughout the process what impressed me most about working with Berger Lagnese & Paul, LLC was their accessibility and willingness to clearly explain things. It was always reassuring and comforting to be able to get in touch with one of the lawyers at the firm knowing that I would be contacted promptly to review the legal issues at hand, our options, and the strategy moving forward. In addition, I appreciated being able to share my thoughts and concerns pertaining to our case and to be able to engage in meaningful discussions with our legal team…Berger Lagnese & Paul, LLC will investigate to find out what really happened and, if malpractice did occur, they will aggressively work to ensure that those responsible are made accountable for their actions.
