While most legal claims are resolved out of court, the strength of a settlement depends entirely on a firm’s reputation for trial readiness. In 2015, the New York Law Journal confirmed KDLM’s position as a powerhouse NYC medical malpractice law firm when it published the list of the largest settlements in New York State.

KDLM achieved the extraordinary feat of securing the #1, #4, and #12 largest settlements on that list. All three landmark cases involved victims of catastrophic medical malpractice, resulting in:

  • $18,000,000 for the top-ranked settlement.
  • $9,000,000 for the second featured case.
  • $5,400,000 for the third.

No other firm in the state had three settlements rank within the top dozen cases that year. This unprecedented success underscores why families across the Tri-State area turn to us for wrongful death and personal injury claims. When hospitals and insurance companies face KDLM, they recognize our history of record-breaking results and are compelled to offer the full compensation our clients deserve.
