About Kip Petroff, Attorney

Kip Petroff is not a generalist who takes all kinds of cases. Kip Petroff’s primary focus is on representing people who have suffered injury due to prescription drugs, medical devices, or motor vehicle crashes.

Kip Petroff has achieved success in many areas of complex personal injury litigation over the past five decades. This experience includes jury verdicts involving injury and death from medical devices, prescription medicines (such as Fen-Phen litigation), medical biologics, aviation, car wrecks, and medical malpractice.

Kip is an advocate for people, their rights and their health. He looks forward to helping those wronged by prescription drugs, medical devices, or motor vehicle crashes.

Kip Petroff has achieved success in many areas of complex personal injury litigation over the past four decades including jury verdicts involving medical devices, prescription medicines, medical biologics, aviation, and medical malpractice.

Mass torts and class actions, as well as medical malpractice and individual serious injury cases, are all in a day’s work for Kip. In the 1980’s, he took on the blood banks that were supplying HIV-tainted blood, paving the way to safer hematology practices. A decade later, his work in breast implant litigation ensured women were not the last to know about the safety of their devices. In July 1992, Petroff was part of a team that successfully represented three of the fourteen crew members in the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, and he played David to Wyeth’s Goliath in the late ’90’s and early 2000’s, demanding and winning justice for victims of the diet drug Fen Phen.

Kip welcomes the chance to consider helping you with your personal injury case. Referrals from other attorneys are also welcome.
