Did Medical Malpractice Occur?
Mistakes can occur at all stages in the medical system: during a checkup, in the issuing or filling of a prescription, during surgery or surgery preparation, and in post-operative care.
If you or your loved one has been the victim of a medical professional's error, we can help you seek justice. We can help you with cases involving:
- Anesthesia errors
- Birth injuries
- Failure to diagnose
- Incorrect surgery performed
- Medication errors
- Postoperative infections
Whether your case involves negligence by a doctor, nurse, or pharmacist, we will help you protect your rights and seek the compensation you need.
If you have lost a loved one due to a health provider's negligence or error, we can help you pursue a wrongful death
claim for funeral expenses, loss of companionship, and loss of family income.
Was Your Loved One Injured In a Nursing Home?
Elderly people in nursing homes need the services and assistance provided in those facilities. If you or a loved one has instead been neglected and injured, we can help you bring a lawsuit against the staff or the nursing home company.
We can help you with cases involving:- Bedsores
- Falls (improper use of bed rails)
- Improperly secured doors
- Inadequate security

We will investigate whether the facility has been negligent in understaffing, providing inadequate resident supervision, or improperly training staff. Whatever the causes of the mistreatment, we will help you fight back.
