We understand that patients need to know why things didn’t go as expected when they received medical care. They may wonder why their cancer wasn’t diagnosed sooner, why they are paralyzed after an orthopedic or neurological surgical procedure, why their parent died as a result of a deadly infection while hospitalized, or why their child has cerebral palsy following a difficult birth.
Using legal and medical knowledge and experience, medical malpractice attorneys work hard to find the answers to client’s questions about their medical treatment. While most poor outcomes are not the result of medical negligence, many people in Michigan and across the country are injured or die every year due to a preventable medical mistake.
Emergency room doctors fail to promptly and properly diagnose and treat patients who are experiencing a stroke or heart attack. Obstetricians fail to properly monitor labor and delivery and the baby suffers brain damage because of oxygen deprivation. Gynecologists fail to test for or diagnose breast or cervical cancer. For more information, please visit the Medical Malpractice Overview.
We are selective in the cases we agree to handle because we want to be able to devote the time and attention each malpractice claims deserves. We focus on cases involving serious injuries, such as:
- Brain injury
- Spinal cord injury
- Cerebral palsy
- Stroke
- Heart attack
- Birth injuries
- Paralysis
- Pulmonary embolism
- Cancer
When filing a lawsuit for medical malpractice in Micigan, the attorney must certify that he or she has consulted with a medical expert who will testify that malpractice occurred and that it caused damages. When evaluating a potential claim, we carefully review medical records, perform a thorough investigation, and consult with medical experts to determine whether a mistake or deviation from standard care caused a preventable injury.
We are happy to review all types of suspected medical malpractice cases in the Michigan area including the following:
- Cancer misdiagnosis
- Ob/Gyn medical malpractice
- Emergency room errors
- Hospital negligence
- Pain medicine / injections
