Skilled and strategic defense in a complex malpractice case

Our medical practice was facing a serious malpractice lawsuit that threatened our reputation and financial stability. We engaged Michael Sonkin at Martin Clearwater & Bell based on his specific recognition in defending medical professionals. From our first meeting, his deep understanding of the complexities in this area of law was evident. He meticulously dissected the plaintiff's claims, guided us through every deposition with confidence, and built a formidable defense strategy rooted in his nearly decade of experience. His calm, methodical approach from his New York office was exactly what we needed during a stressful time, and the case was resolved favorably. While his billing was transparent and fair for the high-stakes work, there were occasional delays in email responses during non-critical periods. Overall, Michael is a highly capable attorney I would recommend to any healthcare provider needing a strong defense.
