Michael Shanahan

As a Partner and Trial Attorney at Gallagher Law Office, my practice is focused on litigating catastrophic injury matters including wrongful death, medical malpractice and nursing home negligence, trucking negligence, and other serious personal injury cases. Since 2014, I’ve recovered over $75 million on behalf of my clients. This recovery was comprised, in part, by the following cases: • $8 million medical malpractice settlement during trial against a Chicago hospital for failure to diagnose and treat an obstructing kidney stone leading to urosepsis and death. • $3.8 million pre-trial settlement for a bicyclist struck by a motor vehicle resulting in multiple fractures and a traumatic brain injury. • $2.5 million medical negligence settlement against an attending physician and a long-term care facility for its failure to manage anticoagulation medications leading to an ischemic stroke. • $2 million settlement for a developmentally disabled adult against a facility for negligence that caused a choking event resulting in an anoxic brain injury and death.
