Doctor Fails to Screen Veteran for Aneurysm Resulting in Emergency Surgery; Settlement of $200,000
A war veteran with a family history of abdominal aortic aneurysms was advised to have semi-annual scans to monitor any changes. Despite several visits to the VA hospital, his doctor never recorded the family history, nor scanned for small aneurisms. Months later the veteran's aneurysm ruptured, and he was rushed into surgery. A prior diagnosis could have meant elective as opposed to emergency surgery.

Dan Hodes treated me like a human being, not just another client. He showed me he cared by how hard he worked on my case.
My daughter was born with a disability due to doctor neglect. I emailed over 200 lawyers over a 2 year time span. I had ONE lawyer believe in my case and he worked with Jeff Milman over the next year helping build my case. Jeff won my case and I cannot thank him enough for believing in me!! He was so pleasant to work with and professional. I will forever be thankful to him and his team!
They are friendly and honest and fought for what they believed was best in our interest.
