Since 1972, I have focused my practice of law in the area of civil litigation, largely in medical liability litigation and health care. During my career, I have successfully defended scores of physicians in a variety of at-risk specialties against medical malpractice claims. I've also represented hospitals, insurers, architects, attorneys, and product manufacturers in connection with a variety of claims including professional liability and medical products liability.

I began this area of practice in New York, where there are abundant resources to bring to bear in these matters. In 1992 when I founded Rosenblum Newfield, Connecticut had far fewer legal defense resources with which to support its health care community. My intention was to provide a broader level of service, a two-state perspective, a diversity of knowledge and experience, and specialists and experts from different legal cultures.

Today, my colleagues and I set our firm apart by devoting considerable effort to research and education in the medical issues that our clients face, as well as in the legal, regulatory and risk management arenas. This allows us to provide in-depth and well-rounded counsel in these complex cases.

In addition to other advantages, our specialized knowledge helps us to develop credible and compelling expert testimony. We are also sensitive to and knowledgeable about the jury view of medicine and how technical information gets filtered through communication.
