Percy Martinez Medical Malpractice Lawyers has been named the #1 Surgical Malpractice Attorney in Jacksonville for 2025, a recognition that, according to Percy Martinez, comes from decades of results in complex surgical injury cases and a reputation for taking on high-stakes litigation across Florida.
Since 1993, Percy Martinez has represented injury victims in some of the most significant personal injury and medical malpractice cases in the state’s history. The firm is known for going head-to-head with insurance companies, hospital systems, and surgical teams, leveraging its hundreds of millions of dollars in verdicts and settlements to demand accountability for patients harmed in the operating room. By keeping its caseload intentionally small, the firm ensures that every surgical case receives in-depth review and individualized strategy.
Percy Martinez Medical Malpractice Lawyers assists patients and families in evaluating every stage of surgical care — from consent discussions and site marking to intraoperative protocols, anesthesia management, and postoperative monitoring. The firm uses a clear, step-by-step process to help clients interpret technical operative reports, anesthesia records, imaging studies, and escalation notes without medical jargon.
Guiding Jacksonville Surgical Patients Through Case Preparation
The firm notes that more post-surgery clients in Jacksonville have used its Surgical Safety Review System to:
-
Compare actual surgical steps to safe surgery protocols and recovery benchmarks
-
Use tailored checklists for operative reports, anesthesia documentation, and count sheets
-
Track recovery milestones and identify red flags requiring immediate escalation
Results in Surgical Malpractice Litigation
The firm has secured outcomes in surgical malpractice cases that include:
-
$5.1 million – retained surgical instrument causing severe complications
-
$3.8 million – wrong-site surgery requiring multiple corrective operations
-
$2.4 million – anesthesia mismanagement resulting in permanent injury
Percy Martinez explains that these results often include compensation for corrective surgery, rehabilitation, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Timeframe for Surgical Malpractice Cases in Florida
Cases typically progress through:
-
4–6 months – medical record collection, surgical and anesthesia expert review
-
90 days – presuit notice period
-
12–24 months – litigation, discovery, mediation, and potential trial
Highly technical cases with multiple defendants can take longer.
Cost Structure
The firm operates on a contingency fee basis — no legal fees unless compensation is recovered. Percy Martinez notes that all litigation costs, including expert surgical reviews and imaging analysis, are advanced and reimbursed only from a recovery.
