When administered properly, epidural injections can be a very effective means of managing pain and allowing patients to heal. However, due to the proximity of the spinal cord, mistakes made by anesthesiologists in administering an epidural can be extremely dangerous.
If you or a loved one has suffered a serious or life-threatening epidural injury, the attorneys at Rosenberg, Minc, Falkoff & Wolff, LLP, are here to stand up for your rights. We have decades of experience handling medical negligence suits for clients throughout New York.

Epidural Injection Injuries
Epidural injections are often used as an anesthetic for people who have suffered back and spinal cord injuries. They are also commonly used to manage pain in child birth.
Epidural injuries can occur due to:
- Giving too many epidural injections within a prescribed time frame
- Injecting the epidural injection in the wrong area
- Injecting the epidural directly into the spinal cord
- Administering an epidural when it is not the best option for the procedure
If you or someone close to you has suffered due to an epidural injury, you may be able to obtain compensation for your medical bills, wage loss, pain and suffering, and other hardships. Our attorneys have significant experience handling complex medical malpractice cases and are prepared to protect your rights.
