When his beloved mother went in for a routine knee surgery, her son never imagined it would end in tragedy. She was vibrant, youthful, often mistaken as his sister - and she trusted the hospital with her life.
But despite her well-documented sleep apnea, the hospital placed her in an unmonitored recovery room, administered morphine, and left her without even the simplest safeguards: no CPAP, no oxygen monitoring, not even a pulse oximeter on her finger. Hours passed - perhaps as many as forty - before she was found. She was gone.
When lawyers refused to act, and when judges revealed ties to the very system he was fighting, he realized the truth: the only person who would fight for justice was himself.
This is the story of one man's relentless pursuit of accountability, armed with nothing but grief, determination, and the law. Filing lawsuits pro se, he targeted surgeons, administrators, and even the hospital's chairman, exposing negligence and corruption at every turn.
Based on a true story, Pro Se is a legal thriller unlike any other - not about violence, but about persistence, the love of a son for his mother, and the belief that justice must prevail, even when the system is rigged against you.
