African American Patient with DoctorsIn the complex world of modern medicine, dismissing a patient’s concerns can have devastating consequences. As medical malpractice attorneys, we have seen firsthand how ignored symptoms, unheeded warnings from family members, and overlooked caregiver observations have led to severe patient harm—even wrongful death.

That’s why we strongly encourage healthcare professionals, hospital administrators, patient advocates, and legal professionals to attend ECRI’s free webinar: “Risks of Dismissing Patient, Family, and Caregiver Concerns” on March 18, 2025, at 1:00 p.m. ET.

location of the Brooklyn Dump truck accidentDump trucks are among the most dangerous vehicles on New York City streets due to their massive size, limited visibility, and often reckless operation. When drivers fail to operate these vehicles safely, the consequences can be tragic. A recent hit-and-run in Williamsburg highlights the devastating impact of negligent dump truck drivers and the urgent need for accountability.

Fatal Brooklyn Dump Truck Collision

Early Saturday morning, a man in his 20s lost his life in a fatal crash involving a Mack dump truck. According to NYPD officials, the victim was crossing Withers Street near Woodpoint Road around 4 a.m. when he crouched down to pick up food he had dropped. At that moment, the dump truck driver, who had been traveling north, made a right turn and struck the man. Despite the severe impact, the driver fled the scene, leaving the victim behind.

Imani Vance killed in a Brooklyn Car AccidentWhen an unlicensed driver gets behind the wheel, they put every pedestrian, cyclist, and passenger in danger. In Brooklyn, a family is now left grieving after an unlicensed driver, Tyree Epps, fled the scene of a devastating crash, leaving 26-year-old Imani Vance to die in the front seat of his Mercedes-Benz.

The Tragic Crash That Took a Young Life

The crash occurred on Van Sinderen Avenue in Brownsville last Thursday when Epps, speeding south in a 2008 Mercedes-Benz C300, blew through a stop sign at Blake Avenue around 1 p.m. His reckless driving led to a violent collision with a school bus, sending it careening into a parked box truck. The impact left Imani Vance with severe head trauma. Instead of helping his passenger, Epps reportedly fled the scene in a taxi, leaving Vance behind.

Nicholas Dominici died because of the daycare's reckless negligenceAs Bronx personal injury lawyers, we have seen many tragic cases of negligence and recklessness, but few are as shocking as the case of Divino Niño day care. What should have been a safe space for infants turned out to be a front for a narcotics operation, with fatal consequences. This case underscores the severe risks posed by illicit drug activity in environments where children are supposed to be protected.

On Monday, Grei Mendez, the owner of Divino Niño, was sentenced to 45 years in federal prison for her role in a fentanyl trafficking operation that resulted in the death of a 22-month-old child, Nicholas Feliz Dominici, and the poisoning of three other toddlers. Mendez had pleaded guilty to possessing and conspiring to distribute narcotics resulting in serious injury and death. Prosecutors argued that she prioritized protecting herself and her co-conspirators over the lives of the children in her care, even attempting to delete incriminating evidence while being questioned by police.

COLORECTAL CANCER PREVENTION
March marks Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, a time dedicated to educating the public about one of the most preventable yet deadly forms of cancer. Early detection through timely screenings can save lives, but when medical professionals fail to diagnose colorectal cancer in time, the consequences can be devastating. As colon cancer misdiagnosis lawyers, we have seen firsthand how delays in diagnosis or improper medical evaluations lead to advanced-stage cancer, unnecessary suffering, and even wrongful death.

The Importance of Early Detection in Colorectal Cancer

Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States, yet it is highly treatable when detected early. Medical organizations such as the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) stress the importance of regular screenings, particularly for individuals aged 45 and older or those with a family history of the disease. When properly diagnosed in its early stages, the survival rate for colorectal cancer is significantly higher.

time-warner-centerTwo window washers narrowly escaped a fatal accident on Friday morning after their scaffolding became unstable and began swinging wildly 78 stories above the ground on West 58th Street. The workers, who were wearing safety harnesses, were not properly secured with safety lines, leaving them at extreme risk of falling. Firefighters from the FDNY had to break windows, stabilize the rigging, and pull the workers to safety.

This harrowing incident highlights the dangers that window washers and other high-rise maintenance workers face in New York City. While safety harnesses are required by law, they are useless if not properly attached to secure anchor points. The fact that these workers were not tied off is a shocking and preventable oversight that could have led to a catastrophic outcome.
