Acupuncture Malpractice – $1.4M Verdict

Our client, a 53-year-old man, suffered severe second and third-degree burns on his back after an acupuncturist failed to secure a heat lamp and left him unattended in the treatment room. At trial, our firm used medical expert testimony to prove that his three-inch scar was permanent and caused ongoing pain. The jury awarded a $1.4 million verdict, which was recognized as the highest recorded acupuncture malpractice verdict in the United States.
