Many Parties May Be Liable

Every provider of healthcare services may be liable for damages for medical errors, if it is determined that their negligence or misconduct resulted in the injuries. This includes:

  • Doctors
  • Hospital and HMO administrators
  • Nurses
  • Dentists
  • Chiropractors
  • Mental health professionals

Errors in the emergency room and by hospital employees often cause serious medical negligence injuries and also qualify as medical malpractice.

What if my doctor failed to provide the right treatment on time?

Cancer misdiagnosis and the failure to recognize an infection are both examples of legitimate medical malpractice claims. Any injury or harm caused by a healthcare professional because of improper or delayed treatment may result in a successful settlement or jury award.

What do I do if my parent was injured in a nursing home?

Nursing home injuries happen for a variety of reasons. When an injury occurs because of staff negligence, including lack of proper care or improper supervision of residents or staff, you may be entitled to damages.

What if I was prescribed medicine that made me sicker?

Improper prescriptions for medication can be serious, even deadly. Injury or medical harm resulting from prescription errors and improper medication is a legitimate reason to pursue damages for injuries.
