Anesthesia has been traditionally known as the condition of having sensation (including the feeling of pain) temporarily blocked or taken away.
While anesthesia has significant medical benefits, the risks are also significantly dangerous. Our attorneys review anesthesia cases including:
Most surgeries require the assistance of an anesthesiologist. An anesthesiologist does not perform the surgery, but instead assists in placing the patient in an unconscious or semi-conscious state. This allows the surgeon to perform the surgical procedure without the patient feeling pain or moving, thus decreasing the risk of harm or poor result.
The anesthesiologist’s job is to administer the anesthesia pre-operatively and to monitor the patient during the surgery. The anesthesiologist is also responsible to ensure that the effects of the anesthesia are only enough for the purpose of the surgery, and will wear in a reasonable time post-operatively.
Prior to almost every surgery, doctors will routinely tell patients in what is called an Informed Consent document that the risks of anesthesia include death. Though rare, anesthesia errors can result in serious personal injuries and death.
What we do in these tragedies is help our clients to get answers about whether the negligence or mistake of an anesthesiologist was responsible for the injury or death suffered. Anesthesiologists undergo extensive medical training. To prevail in lawsuits against anesthesiologists requires knowledgeable medical malpractice attorneys with access to experts in this medical field.
The medical malpractice attorneys of Flaherty Fardo have the resources and knowledge to prosecute these case and to help our clients receive answers and just compensation. If you or a loved on has been injured as result of a sedation error or anesthesiologist error, let our medical malpractice attorneys review your case.

I am an out of State client, over 1500 miles away, and through the 2 years of work on my case I never met anyone from the firm in person, yet they treated me like I lived down the street from the office.
I am very pleased with the professional teamwork, and their patience and timely responses to my requests and to the task at hand. They did all they could do to help with the difficult facts of my case, and I am pleased with the outcome. I would recommend this law firm to anyone with the assurance they would offer the same quality service to them as they did to me. Thank you Flaherty Fardo, Carole J. Boyd
Couldn't have asked for a better experience. They are a wonderful group who are efficient, patient, communicative and do their job very well.
They kept me in the loop the whole time and were extremely helpful. I have used a different firm in the past and this was like night and day. If you are considering using Flaherty Fardo for your assessment appeal (or likely anything else they practice) then you found what you are looking for. A special thank you to Nicole who spearheaded my case and answered my never-ending questions. Top notch!
"Highly Recommended" just isn't enough praise. They are by far the best I have ever worked with.
Professional, but beyond that their personal touch is exactly what a medical malpractice client or personal injury client needs. Noah Fardo is amazing, but the entire firm were great to us. I honestly can't thank Bill Rogel, Nicole Hauptman Amick, and Jaclyn Gibson enough. Thank you all.
