Medical Malpractice
When people visit a doctor or check into a hospital for a surgical procedure, they expect to receive care that meets basic standards. When a loved one is in a nursing home or assisted living facility, the family assumes that he or she is being treated well. When this is not the case, the consequences can be dire. Our attorneys are here to help you in the event of medical malpractice.

FAQ
Read MoreCan mistakes at the pharmacy fall under the medical malpractice category of personal injury cases?
Yes. We have seen situations where pharmacists incorrectly filled the medication prescribed by the patient’s doctor and the patient was seriously injured as a result of this negligence. We have also seen situations where pharmacists failed to warn of a drug’s possible side effect and the patient became very ill because they were not properly informed.
