About Our Personal Injury and Medical Malpractice Team
Experience is Everything in Medical Malpractice Cases
If you are looking for a medical malpractice lawyer, you need a legal team that has experience handling these very specialized cases.
A firm that advertises having 25 lawyers or 200 lawyers is a very bad choice if none of those lawyers regularly handles medical malpractice cases–or if the lawyer assigned to your case doesn’t know what he is doing. A car wreck lawyer has no business handling a case about whether a neurosurgeon did brain surgery correctly.Â
With over 30 years of experience handling hundreds of medical malpractice cases of all kinds, the Polewski Firm is the team you want on your case. See “Cases We Have Handled.”
Decades of Experience. Unmatched Qualifications.
When the stakes are high, the last thing you need is a TV lawyer. You don’t need a lawyer who usually handles divorces or “fender benders,” and you sure don’t need a “case manager.”
Your case will be personally handled by our lead trial lawyer, John Polewski. For details on his qualifications and experience, and to watch an interview with him, go here.
We don’t take hundreds of cases: we take just a few. This enables us to focus all of our attention on those clients whose needs we serve. If you or someone you care about has been seriously injured, or you have lost a family member due to someone else’s negligence or medical malpractice, you are exactly the kind of client we take care of. And we’re the kind of law firm you need on your side.

“John and his staff were patient, informative, professional, proactive and followed up. John personally visited me in the hospital…”– Robin P.
Legal Qualifications
- Mr. Polewski is certified by the Board of Legal Specialization of the State Bar of Texas as a Personal Injury Trial Law Specialist. This certification, obtained only after a difficult and specialized examination, extensive trial experience and recommendation by other trial lawyers and by trial judges, is by no means a routine accomplishment: less than 1.5% of all Texas lawyers possess this qualification. Arkansas has no similar board certification process.
- Due to his success in handling major personal injury cases and Wrongful Death cases, Mr. Polewski has an even rarer qualification – membership in the Million Dollar Advocates Forum.
- Mr. Polewski is also a member of the prestigious American Board of Trial Advocates, an invitation only, national organization of the most experienced trial lawyers in America, dedicated to the preservation of justice and the American civil justice system. Licensed to practice law in both Texas and Arkansas, Mr. Polewski represents clients throughout both states.
- For each of the last 20 years, Mr. Polewski has been awarded the top rating of “superb” in the AVVO rating system, based on reviews by other lawyers and clients (view Mr. Polewski’s AVVO ratings and reviews here). Mr. Polewski consistently ranks at or near the top of recommendations in the independent lawyer review site AVVO for medical malpractice lawyers in Arkansas and Texas.
- He is recognized as one of the top three medical malpractice lawyers in Little Rock by Three Best Rated (see Mr. Polewski’s rating here). Mr. Polewski is consistently top rated in both Arkansas and Texas by Expertise.
- Mr. Polewski is also a recipient–for each of the last 20 years–of top ratings in the Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review process. This ratings system, used by legal consumers for over 100 years, is based on the confidential opinions of other lawyers and judges familiar with the lawyer being rated. Mr. Polewski’s legal skills were rated by other lawyers and judges as “very high to pre-eminent,” and his ethical standards were rated as “very high” – both of which are the top ratings possible.
- Mr. Polewski is recognized as a “Super Lawyer” as rated by the Thomson-Reuters legal ratings system.
