Medical Malpractice and Negligence

Medical Negligence cases are the most difficult cases to take on for several reasons. The medical nature is often complex, the costs are very high, and their is a lot of PR out there claiming doctors and health care providers are sued too much. Unfortunately this PR campaign is working and jurors are reluctant to give big awards against doctors and hospitals.


Despite these tremendous hurdles, we have successfully recovered millions for our clients in medical malpractice cases. Recently we recovered 4.5 million in a medical malpractice and negligence case, a case that several other lawyers turned down for the reasons stated above.

The practice of investigating all cases, even those that are questionable at first glance, has allowed us to prevail for clients in several cases that other attorneys rejected at first glance because they did not understand the often complicated medical issues involved.


We handle a variety of medical malpractice claims in Missouri and Illinois including those arising out of:

  • Gastric Bypass cases - a major focus area of our firm
  • Surgical errors and resulting injuries
  • Missed diagnoses
  • Delayed diagnosis
  • Lack of informed consent
  • Anesthesia errors
  • Obstetric/labor and delivery surgical injuries
  • Orthopedic surgical injuries
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Unreasonable conduct of a physician or health care provider
  • Patient neglect and nursing home abuse

Current Tort Reform has been unjustly raising the bar for victims bringing lawsuits against medical care providers, which makes these cases particularly challenging. Benjamin Sansone and the lawyers at Sansone Law, LLC will review your case thoroughly by investigating all the relevant facts by client and witness meetings, gathering medical records and other pertinent documentation, and then hiring a Medical Doctor to review our investigation to give us an expert opinion as to whether Malpractice was committed.

We investigate your claim and get medical opinions, from a Board Certified M.D., regarding the merits of your case before we finalize our decision as to whether you have a meritorious and economically feasible case.
