Profile

Shirley Blazich, Esq.

Attorney/Partner

I have extensive experience in professional liability litigation and understand issues pertaining to the standard of care and causation. I have experience in hospital/facility administration and organization, as well as provider credentialing and qualifications. I have represented both defendants and plaintiffs in litigation and therefore have a more balanced perspective on professional liability cases.
