Davis, Saperstein & Salomon, P.C. has appointed attorney Gayle Halevy, Esq., as Chair of the firm's Nursing Home Negligence and Abuse Practice, a move that reinforces the firm's dedication to protecting nursing home residents and assisting families affected by neglect, abuse, or medical negligence. Halevy brings over 17 years of litigation experience, including significant work in both New York and New Jersey.
Before joining the firm, Halevy practiced law in New York City for 13 years and spent four years at a respected medical malpractice defense firm in New Jersey. Her background defending hospitals, physicians, nurses, nursing homes, and other medical facilities provides her with valuable insight into how healthcare institutions defend serious injury claims. Now, she applies that experience to advocate for injured clients and their families.
The firm stated, 'Gayle has the experience, judgment, and work ethic needed to lead Davis, Saperstein & Salomon, P.C.'s Nursing Home Negligence and Abuse Practice. When a facility fails to protect a resident from preventable harm, families deserve answers. Gayle's command of medical negligence issues and her ability to prepare serious injury cases make her exceptionally well suited to lead this important practice.'
Halevy's appointment follows several significant case results. In 2025, she secured a $4.25 million jury verdict in Bergen County for a plaintiff who suffered a traumatic brain injury and cervical spine damage after a rear-end collision on the Garden State Parkway. She also worked closely with founding partner Samuel L. Davis on an $11.9 million medical malpractice settlement involving a first-time mother who suffered catastrophic injuries during a routine C-section due to an anesthesia overdose. Halevy played a key role in applying her medical negligence experience to secure the recovery.
As Chair, Halevy will lead the firm in cases involving nursing home neglect, abuse, preventable falls, pressure ulcers, medication errors, dehydration, malnutrition, infection, delayed medical care, poor supervision, understaffing, and neglect in long-term care facilities. The firm, with over 40 years of experience and more than $1 billion recovered in verdicts and settlements, helps injury victims and families in New Jersey and New York investigate negligence, preserve evidence, work with medical experts, and pursue compensation.
