Medical Malpractice

Medical malpractice is an area within personal injury law that covers a situation in which a person suffers injury or death because a physician or other health care provider has deviated from accepted standards of proper medical care.

Cancer Cases

Cervical cancer can have profound effects on women, as well as their families and loved ones. The reality is that invasive cervical cancer in this county is nearly 100 percent preventable through routine gynecological exams and pap smears. Unfortunately 5,000 women die of cervical cancer each year needlessly due to improper medical care.

Birth Injuries

Increasingly, lawyers are called upon by parents of seriously disabled infants or children to determine whether such injuries occurred at or around the time of birth and were avoidable. Any lawyer, who casually begins such an undertaking, seriously underestimates the enormity of the challenge posed by such cases. Perinatal brain or other vital organ dysfunction cases can arise out of mismanagement of the pre-birth course, the post-natal course or a combination of both.Being the parents of a child who has suffered a possible birth injury is devestating. The parents are often torn when faced with a disease like cerebral palsy and the possibility that medical misconduct may have occurred. Birth injury cases can be difficult lawsuits, involving complicated issues of fault and determination of proper medical standards.

Wrongful Death

Being a family member of someone who has needlessly died is devastating. When a person is killed due to another’s negligence or wrongful conduct, the surviving family members may have grounds for a wrongful death lawsuit. The concept of a life lost as a result of medical malpractice or any other wrongful act forms the basis of damage recovery for the victim’s family.
