About Our Clients

Schlapprizzi, P.C., helps people who have been hurt due to the carelessness of another person or entity. Individuals and families come to our firm for help after a loss has drastically altered their lives. We have helped people who have been terribly injured by poorly designed cars, pharmaceuticals with adverse side effects, defective medical devices, careless car drivers, irresponsible trucking companies, insurance companies who act in bad faith, dangerous premises, negligent security, toxic exposure, defective household products, and poorly managed construction sites.

Of all the case types we handle, our firm is most well known for our success in representing victims of medical malpractice. Our job is to secure justice for those individuals and families so that they have the means to live with the dignity every human being deserves. Most cases that our firm handles end in a settlement of some kind. However, a large number of our cases are tried before a jury. If securing justice for the folks we represent means taking the case to trial, we will not hesitate.
