Medical Malpractice Settlement
because it is.
Within days of a medical error, hospital risk management teams get involved. Records are reviewed and their legal strategy begins. That is why acting quickly is not optional; it is essential.
From your first call, we assign a dedicated team that understands exactly how to investigate medical malpractice. We work with expert physicians who review your records and identify precisely where the standard of care was violated. We build the case from the ground up through medical analysis, liability documentation, and expert testimony. We do not stop until the outcome reflects what you actually lost.

Pursuing a medical malpractice claim in Florida takes more than legal expertise. It takes resources. These cases require substantial investment in expert witnesses, in-depth medical reviews, and the ability to go up against well-funded hospital systems and insurance defense teams. Not every firm has the capacity to take that on. We do.
Since 1988, Rubenstein Law has had the financial backing, courtroom experience, and trial readiness to pursue complex malpractice claims and see them through. When others step back, we step in.
WHAT TO DO AFTER Medical Malpractice
The System Is Designed to Protect Providers. These Steps Protect You.
If you believe you or a loved one was harmed by a medical error, the moments that follow are critical. Healthcare systems move quickly to document their version of events. Here is how to protect yourself.
Write down what you were told, when you were told it, what procedures were performed, and what symptoms appeared afterward. Include dates, times, names of providers, and any conversations you had. Memory fades, so document it now.
Hospitals and insurers sometimes send paperwork that can limit your legal rights. Do not sign releases, waivers, settlements, or authorizations without an attorney reviewing them first.
Risk management exists to protect the hospital, not you. They may appear sympathetic. Their job is to limit the institution’s liability. Anything you say can be used to minimize your claim.

You placed your trust in a healthcare system that failed you. You should not have to fight for accountability alone. We are here to answer your questions, protect your rights, and help you pursue the justice you deserve.
How Much Is My Medical Malpractice case worth?
Medical errors cause lasting, life-altering harm, such as additional surgeries, permanent disability, lost careers, and years of follow-up treatment. Compensation in malpractice cases reflects the full scope of that harm. Here is what we evaluate:
The physical pain of additional procedures, the emotional trauma of a preventable medical failure, and the long-term psychological impact on your quality of life.
Time away from work during recovery, and reduced career potential if your injuries limit your ability to return to the same profession or level of employment.
Medical malpractice does not only affect the patient. Spouses and children may have separate claims for loss of companionship, support, and the financial impact of long-term care. We make sure every member of the family is accounted for in your case.
The cost of correcting the original error, including additional surgeries, extended hospital stays, specialized treatment, rehabilitation, and every follow-up appointment required as a direct result of the malpractice.
If the malpractice caused a permanent condition requiring ongoing care, such as specialist visits, medication, therapy, or in-home assistance, that future cost is part of your claim.
In cases involving gross negligence, reckless disregard for patient safety, or intentional misconduct, courts may award additional damages to punish the provider and deter future failures.
It is about seeking accountability for profound harm and providing financial security for those left to rebuild their lives. While no amount of money can undo a life-altering injury or the loss of a loved one, a personal injury or wrongful death claim can offer stability, support, and a path forward during an incredibly difficult time.
The first step forward does not have to be overwhelming. A free consultation in a confidential setting gives you the opportunity to share your story, understand your options, and receive clear guidance without any financial pressure. We evaluate the strength of your case, explain what to expect, and help you make an informed decision about how to proceed. Even if you choose not to move forward, you leave with clarity and direction.
Rubenstein Law represents personal injury victims across Florida with offices statewide and the resources to take on major insurance carriers and corporations.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to file a medical malpractice claim?
Do I need a medical expert to win my case?
Yes. Medical malpractice cases require expert testimony to establish what the standard of care was, how it was breached, and how that breach caused your injuries. Rubenstein Law works with qualified medical experts who can clearly and credibly explain what went wrong.
Can I sue both the doctor and the hospital?
In almost every case, yes. Hospitals can be held liable for the negligence of their employed staff, for credentialing failures, for inadequate supervision, or for systemic failures in protocols and training. Our attorneys investigate every responsible party, not just the individual provider.
Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay no legal fees unless we win your case. Your first consultation is completely free with no obligation. That is why each case we handle is prepared to go to trial.
