APPEALS THAT RESULT IN OVERTURNING INSURANCE COMPANY PRE-CERTIFICATION DENIALS- KEITH ROBERTS ESQ., A NEW JERSEY LEADING HEALTH CARE AND PI ATTORNEY

“In all my years involved in Health Care Law, I can say that Dr. Anthony Marsh is one of the best in preparing medical appeals that result in overturning insurance company pre-certification denials for medically necessary treatment and testing.”


LEGAL PRECEDENT-DR. MARSH’S CASE MANAGEMENT- JOHN MOLINARI, ESQ. SUPER LAWYER AND PARTNER BLUME FORTE FRIED ZERRES & MOLINARI

“Over the years Dr. Anthony Marsh has more than proven his ability to provide for the objective standard under the Lawsuit Threshold. If the truth be known, he in part helped to establish it! Confer Arencibia v. Rosas, Cano v. Roa and Acosta v. Marrow.”


PARADIGM PHYSICIAN- GERALD H. BAKER, ESQ. NEW JERSEY INSTITUTE OF CONTINUING LEGAL EDUCATION, ALFRED C. CLAPP LAUREATE AND MANY OTHER HONORS AND AWARDS

“A doctor's legal knowledge is essential. The legal rights of a person injured in an automobile accident are inextricably entwined with the ability of the patient's doctor to understand both medicine and the law. Over the years, Dr. Anthony W. Marsh has proven himself to be a most worthy example of this desired practitioner. In this regard, the monograph entitled "Lawsuit Threshold" that was produced by Dr. Marsh in 1993 has proven to be prophetic of the doctor's role in automobile cases. Dr. Marsh has advanced the level of forensic medicine by merging both medical impairment and disability (as directed by the New JerseySupreme Court in Oswin). He himself has been cited as the treating physician in several N.J. Appellate verbal threshold cases with most favorable outcomes. In Oswin, the Court stated that a person injured in an automobile accident must submit objective, credible medical evidence of permanent injury and disability. “


VERDICT: $450,000. DEFENSE CARRIER: ALLSTATE INSURANCE COMPANY-: “LOW SPEED IMPACT”  AND “PRE-EXISTING DEGENERATIVE DISC” DEFENSE CHALLENGE, SUPERIOR COURT MIDDLESEX COUNTY, NEW JERSEY- DENNIS DRISCOLL, ESQ.

“In the matter of Pena v. Pena with Allstate Insurance Company as the defendant’s carrier, Dr. Marsh provided scientifically sound demonstrative and illustrative evidence. His ability to make this information clear and understandable to the jurors was accomplished in such a manner that the late Superior Court Judge, the Honorable George Nicola had noted he had never witnessed such lucid testimony as provided byDr. Marsh in all his years on the bench. Dr. Marsh was even able to scientifically counter an experienced and regarded defense orthopedic surgeon expert witness who was admitted as an orthopedic surgery professor from Robert Wood Johnson Medical School.It was impressive. The defense argued it was a “Low Speed Impact” case with nothing more than a degenerative disc bulge. Dr. Marsh‘s countered that the “low speed impact” nevertheless imparted a significant G force capable of producing post-traumatic disc bulge with nerve damage. Jury Verdict: $ 450,000. The verdict was upheld against an appeal from Allstate Insurance Company.


SETTLEMENT: $500,000+. POST DR. MARSH DEPOSITION. DEFENSE CARRIER:  NJ MANUFACTURER’S INSURANCE- MICHAEL A. PRIARONE, ESQ.

“Among Dr. Marsh’s many credentials, he is Board Certified in the field of Occupational Health or Ergonomics. This includes the area of injuries sustained through manual material handling, department of transportation issues (motor vehicle) and so forth. In one substantial case, where my client had fallen while using an inadequate fall protection system, the defense challenges concerned the mechanism of injury. We had an engineering expert in the case. Nevertheless the pivotal issue concerned the biomechanical mechanism of injury. Dr. Marsh was deposed at length on that issue, was credible and persuasive; the case settled shortly thereafter. His presentation included original experimentation as part of his testimony. As a result of his clinical acumen, we succeeded in this most difficult matter handsomely.”

“Dr. Marsh’s overview (diagnosis and treatment of automobile injuries) will provide...a nuts and bolts groundwork that with diligence and further inquiry will permit (one) to better serve those victims of this epidemic (motor vehicle acceleration-deceleration trauma)”
