Although it is always our goal to help clients avoid conflict, when litigation is inevitable, our experienced representation is reassuring. Kern Augustine has developed a noted reputation for achieving success. Kern Augustine provides representation in administrative, criminal and civil courts, and before hospitals and federal and state agencies, ranging from complex claims of medical malpractice and fraud, to issues of harassment, wrongful termination, loss of privileges and breach of contract.

For difficult cases involving substantial bodily injury, Kern Augustine provides extensive litigation expertise. We have successfully represented our clients in both federal and state courts, and have often resolved cases well before trial through the strength of our services.

In today’s environment, a medical malpractice verdict can ruin a career. Even one judgment can make it impossible to obtain malpractice insurance. Since most states and hospitals require insurance in order to practice, an adverse verdict can destroy your career. Moreover, depending upon the state, the verdict may be posted on the internet on your professional profile. In defending a medical malpractice case, however, the interests of the insurance company may not always be the same as the interests of the insured. Keeping down the cost of litigation, and early settlement of a claim may be good insurance business, but bad for the insured. Kern Augustine provides second opinions on medical malpractice cases, and “shadow counsel” services, to assure you that your interests are being properly protected at all stages of litigation.
