About Us
Norchi,
Barrett & Forbes LLC (formerly Norchi & Associates
LLC), a civil litigation law firm, was founded in
2002 in Cleveland, Ohio. The law firm combines
the talents and experiences of its attorneys and
staff and continues a tradition of excellence by
providing a broad range of litigation-related legal
services for clients. This tradition derives
from time-tested principles of early assessment of
claims, client communication, and the use of experienced
and creative trial attorneys. We also provide
client counseling for hospital sentinel event analyses,
hospital credentialing administrative procedures,
and human resources and employment issues. The
firm’s practice areas include general and complex
civil litigation, employment, health care and medical
professional liability, insurance defense, and insurance
coverage.
The firm’s commitment to quality service extends
from highly-skilled attorneys to our experienced professional
staff of nurse consultants, paralegals and legal assistants. We
believe that client satisfaction is achieved by providing
competent and sophisticated legal service. We
strive to keep clients informed and actively involved
in the decision-making process and emphasize continuity
in client-attorney relationships. We measure our
success by the loyalty of our clients.
The firm utilizes the latest technology, software
and case management systems to assist in providing
the most effective and cost-efficient services to our
clients. We developed an internet-based litigation
management tool which enables clients to have access
to file materials and which promotes more effective
client-attorney communication.
We are committed to growing steadily in response to
the demands and needs of our clients. In addition
to our focus on litigation and client counseling, we
conduct seminars and in-house training sessions which
address “lessons learned” from litigation
and sentinel event analyses, and also highlight preventive
techniques to enhance clients’ compliance with
various laws and regulations. As an extension
of our counseling, we also assist clients in root cause
analyses.
With a focus on civil litigation, our representative
clients include University Hospitals Health System
and its affiliated medical facilities, Meridia Health
System, Summa Health System, Case Western Reserve University,
The St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Company, The
Doctors Company, National Guardian Risk Retention,
ACE USA Insurance Co., U.S. Liability Insurance Co.,
Lowes, Inc. and Enviroserve, Inc. The firm is
listed in the Martindale-Hubbell Bar Register of Preeminent
Lawyers and is a selected member of the International
Society of Primerus Law Firms.
