Has the negligence of a medical professional or hospital staff caused an injury to someone you care about? Did you watch a family member die because of a doctor's failure to diagnose a stroke?
We place our lives, and those of our children, in the hands of doctors, nurses, pharmacists and hospital administrators. In return, they have a responsibility to provide care that meets a professional standard.
Contact our Pennsylvania law firm if you suspect that medical negligence has caused the injury or wrongful death of a member of your family, and make arrangements to discuss your concerns with an experienced medical malpractice lawyer at our Philadelphia or Lehigh Valley office.
There is no charge for this case assessment; and no attorney fee unless you recover damages. You should seek legal advice as soon as you learn something has gone wrong.
We realize that this is a difficult time for you and your family. Our attorneys and staff will handle all communications with your health care providers and insurance companies, allowing you to focus on healing.
Medical malpractice is a broad and complex part of personal injury law. Cases our attorneys are prepared to handle may involve factors such as:
- surgical errors, including amputation, organ damage and anesthesia errors
- failure to diagnose a serious illness when treatment could have been effective
- emergency room errors including misdiagnosis of a heart attack, infection, cancer or stroke
- birth injuries causing permanent disability or wrongful death
- pharmacy malpractice involving prescription errors and improperly labeled prescriptions
- hospital negligence leading to surgical errors, slip and fall accidents or medication errors
- nursing home negligence and elder abuse
- failure to provide reasonable security
Our medical malpractice lawyers, with the support of staff and medical experts, prepare clear and simple demonstrations of medical negligence. We have successfully recovered substantial damages for our clients through insurance company settlement negotiations and jury trials.
