We all understand that unexpected things happen when you seek medical care. But there are certain mistakes that should never happen. When these mistakes are the result of ignorance or negligence they are considered medical malpractice. If the negligence of a doctor, nurse, pharmacist, or other health care professional has led to your personal injury or a serious worsening of your condition, you have every right to hold them responsible.
By taking legal action, you are doing everything you can to protect your rights and ensure that people will not suffer similar injuries in the future. Our firm handles a variety of medical malpractice cases, including:
- Failure to diagnose
- Operating on the wrong side of the body
- Operating on the wrong body part
- Objects left behind — both instruments and other materials
- Burn injuries
- Drug overdoses
Sometimes medical malpractice cases are obvious, such as doctors performing the wrong surgery or leaving instruments behind. Other times, cases are more complex. If a psychologically impaired individual is given a full months' prescription of medication and overdoses because they took the whole amount, the doctors should have known better.
Medical malpractice can lead to serious problems and in some cases, medical negligence can lead to wrongful death. Our firm can help your family through this difficult time.
Birth Injuries and Child Medical Malpractice
While medical malpractice cases should always be taken seriously, they are never as difficult as when they involve a small child. If your child has suffered a birth injury or been the victim of medical malpractice in any way, we can protect your family and help you face your future concerns. We handle cases involving disabled children, cerebral palsy, and shoulder dystocia.
