Results Is What Matters

Gabriel Assaad was involved in a very large confidential settlement for a young college man who was transfused blood during a hospitalization at a hospital in Washington, DC. The Plaintiff was a young man who was awaiting a second kidney transplant and was planning on receiving a transplant from a family member in a few months. During a hospitalization, the physician administered a blood transfusion to the plaintiff which caused him to develop new antibodies and therefore was no longer a match for the kidney that was previously an acceptable match.
In addition, because of the blood transfusion, the plaintiff was not a match for 99% of the kidneys in the population. Thankfully, many years after the transfusion, a miracle occurred and an acceptable match was ultimately found. However, during those years, plaintiff suffered extreme emotional depression and had to obtain dialysis three times a week.

Obtained a six figure settlement on the eve before trial. Plaintiff was successful businessman in Maryland who was diagnosed with a rare cancer in his nasal area. During the surgery, the physician packed the nasal cavity and instructed the nursing staff to perform neurological tests regularly. Unfortunately, the nurse on duty was a traveling nurse and was unaware of the complications that can occur. The packing caused pressure on the optical nerve and caused the plaintiff to go blind. Although the patient complained of problems with his eyesight and they were noted in the medical record, the traveling nurse failed to notify the surgeon. As a result, the plaintiff became blind in one eye.
