The Biggest Verdicts

#1 IN PLAINTIFFS' VERDICTS: 2022 saw Lubin & Meyer once again dominate the list of verdicts obtained in the Commonwealth with the firm securing a $2.4 million verdict for a cardiologist’s failure to monitor a patient’s anticoagulation level, and a $1.9 million verdict for a ureter laceration during pelvic surgery. These results come on the heels of a 2021 $3.15 million verdict in the highly publicized case of Antonio v. Medlock, which was the focus of a Boston magazine exposé, The Secret Truth About Boston Doctors. The previous year, Lubin & Meyer won four times as many "million-plus" verdicts as any other law firm in the state as reported by Mass. Lawyers Weekly. Obtaining four medical malpractice plaintiffs’ verdicts is record-breaking as defendants routinely win 9 out of 10 jury trials nationally. The four verdicts totaled an excess of $30M:

Lawyers Weekly.  Significant medical malpractice settlements include:

  • $6 million - death of transplant patient from donor organ infection
