Medical Malpractice & Errors

Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider’s negligence results in harm to a patient. This includes doctors, nurses, hospitals, dentists, and other licensed professionals. Mistakes in diagnosis, treatment, aftercare, or health management can lead to severe injury or even death. These are among the most complex cases in civil litigation, requiring expert witnesses, medical records, and in-depth legal analysis. We handle a wide variety of malpractice claims, including:

  • Medication and Prescription Errors – Injuries caused by being prescribed the wrong drug, wrong dosage, or dangerous drug combinations.

     

  • Surgical Mistakes – Operating on the wrong patient, wrong site, or leaving surgical instruments inside the body.

     

  • Unnecessary Surgery – Procedures performed that weren’t medically indicated, often for financial gain.

     

  • Misdiagnosis/Failure to Diagnose – Incorrect or missed diagnoses that result in delayed treatment or worsened outcomes.

     

  • Delayed Diagnosis – Time-sensitive conditions (like cancer or stroke) that go untreated due to delay, causing irreparable harm.

     

  • Anesthesia Errors – Overdose, allergic reactions, or failure to monitor properly during surgery.

     

  • Emergency Room Mistakes – Overlooked symptoms, poor triage decisions, or discharging patients too soon.

     

  • Dental Malpractice – Injuries from improper technique, infection, or failure to identify oral disease.

     

  • Psychiatric Malpractice – Harm caused by negligent therapy, overmedication, or failure to prevent self-harm.

     

  • Plastic Surgery Malpractice – Botched cosmetic procedures, infection, or disfigurement due to negligence.
