Recognized Success as Honolulu Injury Lawyer

Over the past 45+ years I have been honored as a Honolulu injury lawyer,  to represent literally thousands of victims of negligence in their efforts to obtain fair compensation for the harm done to them and their families. Insurance companies rarely treat unrepresented plaintiffs fairly so that representation by an experienced and well-respected attorney is strongly recommended. I have extensive experience in settling, mediating and litigating cases involving victims of general negligence, medical malpractice and motor vehicle accidents. I work with some of the best medical experts in the country on my medical malpractice cases and have an excellent support team at Starn O’Toole Marcus & Fisher, the firm at which I now practice.

$7 Million Medical Malpractice Settlement

At birth, C.S' had a shunt implanted into the head to relieve pressure from hydrocephalus. Since the implantation, the shunt developed a history of malfunctioning. It is standard practice to be acutely aware of changes in the child's medical condition, because the changes can signal a shunt malfunction, which, if left untreated, can result in brain damage.
