Powers & Santola is one of the nation's preeminent medical malpractice and personal injury law firms. We are devoted to representing a limited number of individuals who have been severely injured, or whose family members have been killed, as a result of medical and hospital malpractice or negligence, with emphasis on the failure to provide adequate protection to construction workers and transportation-related injuries. Our firm excels at helping individuals harmed by a needless delay in diagnosing cancer. Due to our extensive background in the area of traumatic brain injury, we represent many individuals with brain and spinal cord injuries, as well as children who were born with neurological impairments (i.e. cerebral palsy, Erb's palsy and brachial plexus injuries). In addition to four of our lawyers being individually honored as “Best Lawyers in America”, the firm of Powers & Santola has repeatedly been recognized as one of the nation’s “Best Law Firms” by U.S. News and World Report and Best Lawyers. The firm has consistently been awarded a tier one ranking in both the areas of Plaintiff’s Medical Malpractice Law and Plaintiff’s Personal Injury Litigation for the Albany, NY metropolitan area. By only accepting a limited number of cases, we can focus all of our attention and assets on achieving an exceptional result for the clients we do accept. Our goal in every case is to achieve a result that will fundamentally change our client’s life for the better.
