Medical Malpractice Testimonials
"This was a complicated and sensitive case because the patient was the wife of a physician who was a colleague of the defendants. Mr. Creo was masterful in grasping the inherent problems and orchestrating a resolution. We were totally satisfied. It was a pleasureable experience worth every penny."

"In the midst of a dispute Bob has that rare and uncanny ability to reason with the parties and to persuade them to reach an accord. I have used his services in at least four mediations and on each occasion I came away satisfied with the result. He has an amazing gift."

"We had a complex case with multiple defendants that Bob Creo helped settle- although not the easy way, through no fault of his own. We were not able to resolve the case at the mediation session and began trial. Bob did not give up and remained involved. At the end of the fourth week of trial, with several weeks to go, the matter was settled with Bob's participation. This enabled me to concentrate on the litigation while he continued to keep the settlement negotiations alive."

"Mr. Creo has consistently demonstrated an ability to cut through to the essence of the issues of a case and to focus on matters which would be of most significance to a jury, should the case proceed to trial. His unique perception in this regard at mediation results in eventual abandonment of the usual "posturing" by opposing counsel, paving the way for meaningful dialog between the parties and encouraging the willingness of the parties to more openly and honestly communicate with the adverse party during the mediation process. Mr. Creo has the unique ability to be well-received and trusted by both parties, even in highly emotionally-charged situations where the stakes for both sides are high."

"This was my first mediation and I was somewhat skeptical about the potential for success. I tend just to be more direct and either they'll accept the money we have or not. Anyway, I guess I cannot argue with the outcome, which seemed acceptable to all involved."-Mary Grady Walsh
