About Patrick Malone
Patrick A. Malone is the founding partner of Patrick Malone & Associates, P.C. in Washington, D.C., a nationally recognized trial lawyer focused on medical malpractice, product liability, and serious personal injury cases. Before practicing law, he was an award-winning investigative journalist with United Press International and the Miami Herald, where his medical reporting series 'Dangerous Doctors' was a 1980 Pulitzer Prize finalist. After earning his J.D. from Yale Law School in 1984 - where he won the Harlan Fiske Stone and Potter Stewart Prizes for moot court, the C. LaRue Munson Prize, and edited the Yale Law Journal - he clerked for U.S. District Judge Gerhard Gesell. In more than 40 years of practice he has represented clients seriously injured by negligent doctors, hospitals, manufacturers, and corporations, and is a frequent author and lecturer on advocacy, cross-examination, and patient safety.
Proven verdicts and settlements
A D.C. Superior Court jury awarded $8.35 million after an orthopedic surgeon failed to recognize the loss of blood flow to an 82-year-old patient's leg following a knee replacement, leaving the limb to die and require an above-knee amputation.
A Montgomery County jury found a Maryland dermatology practice liable for the death of 47-year-old attorney Richard Semsker, whose melanoma went untreated for two years.
A premature newborn suffered a permanent chemical burn and stunted growth in her right ankle after an IV line leaked caustic fluid into the surrounding tissue, and a District of Columbia jury awarded her $3.6 million.
Rosalee Blue was left with a paralyzed right foot, chronic leg pain and loss of bowel control after the anticoagulant Lovenox was given intravenously during hernia surgery at Sibley Hospital in Washington. The anesthesiologist settled for $2 million on the first day of trial and assigned his contribution claim against the surgeon to her side. The court then entered a $1 million contribution judgment against the surgeon, which the D.C. Court of Appeals affirmed in 2011. Her recovery came to $3 million.
