Davis, Saperstein & Salomon, P.C. has appointed attorney Gayle Halevy to lead its Nursing Home Negligence and Abuse Practice. In this role, she will oversee litigation involving cases of mistreatment and medical errors within long-term care facilities across New Jersey and New York.
Halevy brings 17 years of legal experience to the position, including four years spent at a defense firm representing medical providers. This background provides her with specific insight into the strategies healthcare institutions use when defending against serious injury claims.
Her recent professional track record includes securing a $4.25 million jury verdict in a traumatic brain injury case and contributing to an $11.9 million medical malpractice settlement. The firm expects her expertise to enhance their ability to navigate complex medical documentation and liability issues for affected families.
The legal sector is increasingly focusing on specialized litigation to address rising concerns regarding the standard of care in long-term facilities. As the population ages, the frequency of complex medical negligence cases involving nursing homes has prompted firms to recruit litigators with deeper technical and institutional knowledge.
By hiring attorneys who previously worked in medical defense, firms are better positioned to challenge the institutional protocols often cited in neglect or injury lawsuits. This trend highlights a shift toward more aggressive, evidence-based advocacy in the personal injury market.
