Rochester Law Firm Reaches $100-Million Mark In Total Personal Injury Recoveries

Record of verdicts and settlements reached in auto accident, medical malpractice and other injury cases.

The lawyers of Scott C. Gottlieb & Associates, LLP, a personal injury practice in Upstate New York, have just surpassed a milestone few attorneys ever reach: the $100-million mark in total verdicts and settlements.

"We've worked long and hard for our personal injury clients, and we're proud of our track record of success in the courtroom and at the settlement table," said partner Scott C. Gottlieb.

"Every case stands on its own merits, and our prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome in future claims," Gottlieb said. "But our achievements on behalf of our clients illustrate the dedication and efforts that we put into each and every case."

Gottlieb said that $100 million in verdicts and settlements have been recovered by lawyers who are current members of The Law Offices of Scott C. Gottlieb & Associates, LLP. Some of the verdicts and settlements occurred before the lawyers joined the practice, he said.

The firm has impressive recoveries in a variety of personal injury cases, including:

• Motor vehicle accidents. Recoveries have included a $1.1 million verdict for a victim who suffered head injuries in a car wreck, and an $800,000 settlement for a victim who suffered multiple fractures in another accident.
• Medical malpractice claims. The firm's recoveries include a $6.1 million verdict over alleged malpractice by an anesthesiologist.
• Dog bites. The firm negotiated a $100,000 settlement after a dog bite left a victim with facial injuries.
• ATV and boating accidents. Multiple injuries in an ATV accident resulted in a $375,000 settlement negotiated by the firm.
• Birth injuries. Among the firm's many recoveries is a $5.15 million verdict in a birth injury case.
• Brain and head injuries. The firm negotiated a $4.5 million settlement following a truck accident that left a client with severe brain injuries.

The firm has also had success in wrongful death claims, cancer misdiagnosis claims, hunting and firearms accidents, construction accidents, and slip and fall injuries.
