Recent Cases

$4,500,000 - Diagnosis Error

Settlement on behalf of our client who did not receive timely medication in the Emergency Department to treat an evolving stroke, which left him with permanent injuries and neurologic deficits. The doctors and nurses involved failed to correctly diagnose his true condition and failed to administer clot-busting medication in a timely manner. 

The claim was amicably resolved with all medical providers and their insurance companies prior to a lawsuit being filed.

$1.625 - Million Medical Malpractice Settlement

Our 67-year-old client faced serious complications following hernia repair surgery. During recovery, he needed breathing and oxygen support. However, the physician chose an inappropriate method of respiratory support, opting for a mask with forced airway pressure instead of intubation. This misstep resulted in a tear in the client's esophagus, which the surgery had already weakened. Consequently, our client suffered catastrophic health issues, underwent additional surgery, and fortunately survived.

Professional Associations

Amanda Wright has been the most informative, professional, and supportive attorney throughout the entire process of our case. My respect towards her and the firm she represents, my case has always been addressed by “Our Case” and not “Your Case.” Attention to detail has superseded all expectations and experience of attorneys in choosing the right one for me.

I retained Ms. Amanda during the most difficult time of my entire transportation career. She showed attention to detail during the most sensitive time not only towards me but the other party involved as well. She assisted me during my affidavits and representation with law enforcement and has continued to do so, to date.

She was readily available to answer voicemails, email correspondence, and provided the most understandable of explanations pertaining to legal matters.

Thank you for your continued assistance and I would highly recommend Ms. Amanda, along with Osborne & Francis LLC.

I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your firm's representation of my daughter Willow P. Ms. Amanda Wright was the attorney assigned to our case and we could not have been more grateful for her diligent and skillful representation of Willow.

My sister is Mr. J. Gerard Stranch's paralegal (Stranch, Jennings & Garvey, PLLC) and of course, I reached out to her for recommendations. Mr. Stranch recommended we contact your firm.

We contacted your office based upon the recommendation and your staff immediately did the intake of our case and assigned us Ms. Wright - I believe the most compassionate and caring attorney I have ever encountered. Ms. Amanda Wright was everything you could possibly ask for. Not only did she actually care, she gave us her personal cell phone number and assured us that no question was too small to ask. She kept us informed during every step of the process and she helped me (as a mother) through all the scary things this brings with it. She knew the best doctors to recommend and it was always her highest priority that my daughter was well taken care of and received the care she needed.

I never had to deal with having to leave messages and waiting to hear back since we had direct access to Ms. Wright. She handled everything so professionally and has become very dear to our family. This didn't feel like a legal transaction - we felt like she was taking care of us as if we were family. She cared so much even though this was a small case. She always asked how things were going outside of the case as well and spoke to my daughter personally. I don't think you can find a better personal injury attorney. She used to work for major insurance companies so she knows their tactics and was always a step ahead of them. She is a pro in knowing what insurance coverages to have and also advised us on this. I feel like I'm better prepared for the world as she also helped us obtain the needed coverage going forward to feel peace of mind for unplanned events.
