Anesthesia should bring relief and safety — never harm. Yet across operating rooms from Ironwood and Ontonagon to Escanaba and Green Bay, preventable anesthesia mistakes continue to devastate families. A misplaced tube, an overdose, or a drop in blood pressure can lead to permanent brain injury, paralysis, or death.
Vincent Petrucelli, Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers (ACTL), has nearly 50 years of experience investigating surgical negligence. His leadership in the landmark Wisconsin Supreme Court case Ferdon ex rel. Petrucelli v. Wisconsin Patients Compensation Fund (2005 WI 125), which struck down malpractice-damage caps as unconstitutional, reflects the same constitutional commitment he brings to every client’s fight for justice.
How We Handle These Cases
Our firm works with anesthesiologists, CRNAs, and surgical-safety experts to identify each breakdown:
- Improper intubation causing oxygen deprivation.
- Excessive anesthesia dosage leading to hypotension and cardiac arrest.
- Misplaced epidural or spinal needle causing nerve or spinal-cord damage.
- Inadequate patient monitoring during or after surgery.
Vincent Petrucelli personally reviews every chart and operative note, ensuring that no fact — however technical — goes unexplained. He has earned the trust of juries throughout the Upper Peninsula by revealing complex medicine in clear, human terms. Contact Vincent Petrucelli today at (906) 265-6173 or vincent@truthfinders.com.
