Jaime A. Alvarez is a seasoned trial lawyer specializing in complex multi-party litigation, including medical malpractice, product liability, defective drug devices, and other cases involving catastrophic injuries. Prior to joining the firm, Jaime was the Chair of the Medical Malpractice Group at a prominent malpractice firm in Miami, where he represented physicians, nurses and other health care providers. Thus, Jaime is intimately familiar with the strategies used by the defense and insurers in medical malpractice actions.
Believing that the health care industry had finally reached a dangerous point of focusing on profits rather than patient care, Jaime decided it was time to dedicate his career to protecting the rights of patients and representing the victims of malpractice. Jaime has extensive experience litigating cases involving wrongful death, quadriplegia, brain damage, stroke, loss of limb, heart attack and other permanent injuries. Most recently, Jaime was part of a trial team which obtained $15.5 million on behalf of their clients.1
Jaime graduated in the top five of all English majors from Florida International University, and in 2009 graduated cum laude from the Florida State College of Law. He is a SuperLawyer, Client Champion, and a former Top 100 Civil Defense Litigator.
