Medical Malpractice and Nursing Home Negligence
In any medical malpractice case, the first thing we do is talk to the client and find out why he or she feels the doctor or hospital did something wrong. Simply because a surgery or treatment did not turn out right or effect a cure does not mean there was medical negligence. We examine every detail of your case, looking for strong evidence of medical malpractice before we file suit.
After gathering complete and detailed medical records, we consult a medical professional (often an expert in the relevant field) for advice and input. Should any red flags arise, we aggressively seek compensation for the damages you have sustained through medical negligence.
We can assist with numerous types of malpractice and nursing home negligence cases, including:
- Failure to diagnose cancer
- Failure to conduct proper medical screening and eye exams
- Birth and delivery injury, including by a nurse or technician
- Injured by poorly administered or improper injections
- Failure to properly monitor premature babies after birth
- Failure by hospital to monitor a patient that should be restrained
- Injury by improper incisions during surgery
- Prescribing improper medications and failure to monitor the effects of medication
- Nursing home neglect or abuse
- Improperly trained employees
- Failure to screen employees and/or negligent hiring
