Looking at the Whole Person

As human beings, we are more than simply a collection of body parts. We are whole people. The loss of a limb in a car crash, disfiguring burns from an explosion, even a limp caused by a fall can change a person's perception of self forever.

At the Law Offices of Steven L. Martin, we look at the full impact that an injury has on our client. In wrongful death cases, we look at the many ways that life has changed for family members who have suffered the loss of a loved one.

We understand the challenges you face and we make sure the judge and jury understand those challenges as well. A good example of how our holistic approach yields results for our clients can be found in a recent case:

Our client lost a testicle due to failure to diagnose testicular torsion. While it may be argued that our client still had one functioning testicle and therefore had not suffered a serious loss, our client's view was quite different. He had lost a vital part of himself and felt that loss deeply. We pointed out to the judge that if our client had been a woman who lost one breast, people would understand that loss to be a mutilation. We were successful in arguing that our client's loss should be viewed and valued similarly.
