New England's Best Lawyers Highlights Law Firm's Pioneering Patient Advocacy Work

The 2012 issue of New England's Best Lawyers® included a cover article on Andrew C. Meyer, Jr. and the pioneering effort he has led on behalf of clients injured by medical mistakes and other forms of negligence. A few brief excerpts from the issue — which also lists five of the firm's attorneys among the "Best Lawyers in New England" in personal injury and medical malpractice law — are presented here.

On being a pioneer in the area of patient advocacy and patient safety:
“We were one of the first firms to expose that medical practitioners make mistakes and to take a stand on behalf of consumers,” Meyer says. “We started working toward changing the systems within hospitals and doctors’ offices to provide better patient care.”
On creating changes that help to create a safer environment in many hospitals:
“On behalf of our clients we have ensured that whatever loss that occurred in their family has not gone without some corrective measure being taken in the hospital environment or doctor’s office to prevent similar harm from happening to others.”
On the most gratifying aspect of his work:
“It’s very rewarding to be able to bring some solace and comfort to those who seek our representation while also protecting others by changing the system. Ultimately, our work has benefited both the medical profession and society as a whole by improving patient and public safety.”
