Our Medical Law Services

When a healthcare provider fails to meet the standard of care, the results can be devastating. We represent clients in cases involving:

  • Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis
  • Surgical errors
  • Anesthesia mistakes

Hospitals are responsible for the actions of their staff and the safety of their facilities. We handle cases involving:

  • Poor sanitation or infection control
  • Emergency room errors

Elderly loved ones deserve dignity and care. If you suspect abuse or neglect in a nursing home or assisted living facility, we can help investigate and take legal action. Signs may include:
