Medical Malpractice

Our law office handles medical malpractice, hospital malpractice, and physician / doctor malpractice cases involving:

• Birth Injury: We represent clients in medical malpractice cases involving birth injuries, such as cerebral palsy, erb's palsy, or shoulder dystocia, caused by the negligence of the physician or nurse during birth or pregnancy.
• Failure to Diagnose / Misdiagnosis: Failing to diagnose a medical condition or misdiagnosis of a medical condition can result in improper treatment or treatment that comes too late.
• Failure to Treat: Failing to order necessary medical tests and failing to treat injury or disease properly can result in life-endangering consequences.
• Surgical Errors: When a client suffers harm as a result of a surgical mistake, such as puncture to bodily tissue or organs, anesthesia errors, or other surgical errors, the surgeon may be held liable.
• Emergency Room Negligence: Fast-paced emergency rooms are full of patients in need of care. However, providing inadequate care can result in misdiagnosis, mistreatment, or other catastrophic consequences.
• Prescription / Medication Errors: We hold doctors, nurses, and pharmacies accountable for over-prescribing medications, filling incorrect prescriptions, and prescribing or filling the wrong dose.
• Wrongful Death: We represent the family members of fatal accident victims in wrongful death actions brought by the estate of the deceased for negligent acts causing death.

In every medical malpractice case we handle, we obtain the necessary evidence to prove the standard of care was substandard, or breached. The standard of care varies by case and profession. We understand these liability standards and know what to look for to determine how to succeed in a case. View some of our successful verdicts and settlements.
