Founded by three of the nation's most accomplished trial attorneys, the firm was built on a singular focus: achieving justice for those who have suffered profound harm due to medical malpractice or other forms of negligence. The firm's partners have a distinguished history of securing record-breaking, multi-million dollar verdicts and settlements, demonstrating a level of courtroom skill and relentless advocacy that is second to none. They understand that their clients are facing the most difficult times of their lives, and they are committed to providing compassionate, personal attention while fighting tirelessly to secure the financial resources necessary for a lifetime of care.

A Unique Fusion of Expertise: Medical Malpractice and Whistleblower Law

What sets Youman & Caputo apart is their unique and powerful combination of expertise. They are one of the very few firms in the country that excels at the highest levels in both catastrophic medical malpractice litigation and complex whistleblower (qui tam) lawsuits under the False Claims Act. This dual focus provides them with an unparalleled perspective, as they are equally adept at holding negligent doctors accountable in state court and taking on massive corporations that have defrauded the government in federal court. This breadth of experience in high-stakes litigation ensures that every case benefits from a sophisticated, strategic, and battle-tested approach, consistently leading to exceptional results.

Core Areas of High-Stakes Litigation

The firm concentrates its practice on cases involving the most serious injuries and significant corporate wrongdoing, providing a powerful voice for the vulnerable.

• Medical Malpractice Lawyers: The firm's cornerstone practice involves representing patients and families in complex medical negligence cases, including those involving birth injuries (such as cerebral palsy), surgical errors, misdiagnosis of cancer, anesthesia errors, and hospital-acquired infections.
• Accident and Injury Lawyers: Advocating for victims who have suffered catastrophic injuries, such as traumatic brain injury or paralysis, in cases involving trucking accidents, defective products, and other incidents of severe negligence.
