A Lifeline After a Devastating Medical Error

After a surgical error left my husband with permanent complications, our family was overwhelmed and unsure where to turn. From our first consultation at Maley and Maley PLLC, Chris Maley provided not just legal expertise, but genuine compassion and clarity. His deep, 18-year focus on medical malpractice law in Vermont was immediately evident. He didn't just see a case file; he took the time to understand the profound impact on our daily lives. Chris and his team meticulously gathered evidence, consulted leading medical experts, and navigated the complex litigation with a steady hand. His recent recognition as a 'Lawyer of the Year' is no surprise to those who have worked with him—it reflects the caliber of strategic thinking and dedication he brings. The positive settlement we achieved has secured my husband's long-term care and given us peace of mind. In Columbus and throughout Vermont, Chris Maley is the attorney you want in your corner when facing powerful institutions. He is a consummate professional who fights tirelessly for his clients.
