We also seek to keep our focus on the real issue – improving health care and patient safety. Medical malpractice injuries are preventable and should not happen.

Our lawyers hold negligent medical professionals and institutions accountable.
About Medical Errors And Suffering That They Can Cause
Statistics show that each year in the United States, approximately 195,000 people die due to preventable medical errors. If the Centers for Disease Control made preventable medical errors a cause of death category, it would rank 6th as a cause of death in America. Surprisingly, in healthcare ranking by country, the United States ranks 37th out of 191 participating countries in overall healthcare efficiency, quality, and performance.
Medical malpractice (or “med mal”) claims can bring relief when treatments provided by a doctor fall below the accepted standard of practice in the medical community and cause injuries or death to the patient. These mistakes can cause catastrophic injuries and a lifetime of future medical needs and costs. Med mal claims document preventable mistakes made by doctors.
The Congressional Budget Office found medical malpractice amounted to less than 2 percent of health care spending despite propaganda claiming heightened health care costs from lawsuits. The Government Accountability Office found malpractice cases have not widely affected access to health care. Diligent, caring doctors often express their support for our efforts to hold negligent practitioners responsible for compensating injured clients. We will keep representing clients who have suffered lasting harm because of wrongdoing in the medical field.
