Woman Dies of Pulmonary Embolism After Surgeons Fail to Take Preventative Measures Following Abdominal Surgery; Settled for $525,000
A 47-year-old wife and mother of four died of a pulmonary embolism after two surgeons failed to take preventative steps to avoid a deep vein blood clot following abdominal surgery despite the fact that she was at high risk for development of a clot. The patient, who had undergone a partial colectomy, was not prescribed medication to prevent the deep vein blood clot from either of her two surgeons, and died due to a saddle embolus as a result. Daniel M. Hodes with Hodes Milman represented the plaintiff and her family; the case was settled for $525,000.

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.
