QUEENS MEDICAL MALPRACTICE ATTORNEYS
EXPERIENCE AND RESOURCES
Medical Malpractice occurs when a practitioner fails to use the appropriate practices, and their mistake causes serious harm to the patient. There are many types of medical malpractice including “failure to diagnose” a condition, misdiagnosis, negligence impacting pregnancy and childbirth, surgical mistakes and mistakes in prescribing or administering medication. There are sub-specialties including pediatric malpractice, dental malpractice, and birth injuries. These cases are complicated and always require an attorney.
SURGICAL MISTAKES
If you have been injured by a surgical mistake, the Queens Medical Malpractice Attorneys at Wittenstein & Wittenstein and the Jacob Fuchsberg Law Firm can help you. Despite the great of amount of training for doctors, mistakes are still all too common. If you are the victim of a surgical mistake, you may have a claim not only against the doctor but also against the hospital and support staff. Hospitals are responsible for the training supervision of all medical personnel.
The question to ask is whether the doctor and staff followed the proper “standard of care” for the procedure. Sometimes emergencies occur during surgery, but medical staff should be probably trained to handle those emergencies as well. There are cases where it was found that the doctor was under the influence or working too many hours. Sometimes the doctor is performing surgery that he or she was not properly trained to do. Other times it’s simply a mistake or an error in judgment. It takes a team of expert attorneys and investigators to find the real cause. Queens Medical Malpractice Attorneys, Wittenstein & Wittenstein, will leave no stone unturned to get you answers.
Some example of surgical mistakes:
- Surgery at the wrong site
- Performing the wrong surgical procedure
- Incisions made incorrectly
- Equipment not fully sterilized
- Nearby organs impacted by surgery
- Surgical procedures that take too long
- Tools left inside a patient’s body
- Allergic reactions to anesthesia
- Avoidable damage to muscles, ligaments, tissue and nerves
- Avoidable infections
If you think might be a victim of a surgical mistake, you should have a free consultation to determine whether or not this is true. It could be that your doctor was following the proper protocols and there was nothing different he or she could have done. Finding this out can give you closure, help you sleep at night. If it turns out that the doctor did make a mistake, you should consider making a claim.

Queens Is the New Brooklyn
Brooklyn used to be where artists went because it was cheap, flexible, and unpoliced. That version of Brooklyn is gone. What’s left is a real-estate brand with a cultural afterimage—galleries designed around sales, neighborhoods shaped by marketing decks, and an art scene that feels increasingly managed. Queens is where the work actually happens now. You can see it across the borough—in Ridgewood, Sunnyside, Forest Hills, Astoria, and Long Island City—not because there’s a single “scene,” but because artists here are still allowed to work without being pushed into a look, a market, or a lane. Queens hasn’t flattened itself into a style. It doesn’t need to. That range showed up clearly at the Queens Says [...]
Resist Flower™: How Art Funds the March—and Strenghtens the Movement
Resist Flower™: How Art Funds the March—and Builds the Movement Resist Flower™ began as an image, not a fundraising plan. A simple visual gesture: a flower that refuses to wilt. A form that looks gentle at first glance, then insists on staying. Over time, it became something more than an artwork. It became a shared symbol—one that people recognized, carried, wore, and returned to. And now, it has become one of the ways we are materially supporting the next march. This matters, because movements don’t run on inspiration alone. They require permits, printing, transportation, materials, accessibility accommodations, food for volunteers, sound systems, legal support, and contingency planning. None of that is glamorous, but all of [...]
Art Builds Communities
Art does not arrive fully formed. It is built—collectively, physically, in shared space. Before it appears on a street or in a march, it appears in conversation, in planning sessions, in rooms where people cut, paint, argue, revise, and keep going. This process is not secondary to the work. It is the work. Community is strengthened not only by what art represents, but by how it is made. An art build gathers people who might not otherwise meet. It gives them a common task, a shared visual language, and a reason to stay in the room together long enough for trust to form. The result is more than objects. It is continuity. In preparation for [...]
Art as Power
Art is a form of power that operates through images rather than decree. It shapes perception, organizes memory, and gives structure to experiences that resist easy narration. Long before it persuades, art reorients: it trains attention, alters scale, and determines what is allowed to remain visible. My own work begins from this premise. Images are not neutral, and symbols are never incidental. They accumulate meaning through repetition, circulation, and use—through being carried, held, worn, or encountered unexpectedly. Over time, certain forms insist on returning. A flower becomes a sign of refusal rather than ornament. A future date becomes a horizon rather than a prediction. These are not abstractions; they are working tools. Throughout history, images [...]
