(Main Office)

Cirignani Heller & Harman is devoted solely to medical malpractice litigation with lawyers who are also doctors. This expertise and experience allows us to see things in cases other lawyers miss. From case inception to trial, all the CH&H lawyers meet together regularly to "roundtable" each case, discussing its status, its strategy, and the steps necessary to bring the case to resolution. Furthermore, CH&H intentionally limits the number of medical cases it chooses to handle, keeping the per-lawyer caseload to around twenty cases or less. This policy was instituted to ensure that clients (and their cases) will get the personal attention they need and deserve.

We are not a referral service. We handle your cases from inception through settlement or verdict.
