Practice Areas
A “Big Picture”
Perspective
We are go-to litigators for clients ranging from working families to prominent executives and billion-dollar corporations. We have significant experience on both sides of the “v.” in state and federal courts around the country. We represent a wide variety of clients in complex litigation because we are motivated by doing the right thing for our clients, regardless of who they are and their station in life.
Complex Personal Injury and Medical Malpractice Litigation
Our medical malpractice team offers unique advantages due to our experience
and science-based approach to litigation, which is why we are regularly retained
by doctors and other medical professionals when their own loved ones have
been injured.
Aaron Block formerly defended one of Atlanta’s leading hospitals in high-exposure cases and now brings that expertise to bear on behalf of injured plaintiffs. Through his medical malpractice work and mass tort work for various industries, Aaron has significant experience with developing and explaining complex scientific themes in areas ranging from cancer treatment to drug interactions to surgical errors. Our on-staff nurse consultant, Susie Reynolds, BSN, RN, CPN, brings more than a decade of nursing experience to the table.
The Block Firm is selective in accepting medical malpractice cases and focuses
on high-stakes matters—wrongful deaths, serious injuries, and cases with
important public health implications. Defendants respect the thoroughness and
skill with which we evaluate cases, and we are often able to reach positive resolutions prior to filing suit. But when necessary, we have successfully gone toe-to-toe with some of the country’s most well-known hospitals.
