Holding Doctors and Other Medical Providers Accountable
Although the Supreme Court of Georgia, in a victory for Georgia citizens, recently overturned a cap on certain damages in medical cases, there are still many unique challenges facing people seeking compensation for medical malpractice. We consequently handle only medical malpractice cases that involve serious personal injuries and death. Some of the medical malpractice cases we have experience pursuing include:
- Failure to diagnose: Before a patient with cancer or another serious medical condition can get the necessary treatment, his or her condition has to be correctly diagnosed in a timely manner. Our attorneys hold doctors accountable for delayed diagnosis and misdiagnosis.
- Surgical errors: Any surgery must be performed carefully in order to avoid organ damage, infection and other serious consequences. Our firm pursues malpractice claims against negligent doctors and hospitals for surgical errors.
- Birth injuries: Expecting parents trust their obstetricians to provide them with sound advice and care. When complications arise during pregnancy or delivery, an otherwise happy occasion can quickly turn into a nightmare. We have experience pursuing cases against obstetricians for their negligence causing brain damage, cerebral palsy and other serious birth injuries.
- Medication errors: When patients are given medications — including anesthesia — doctors and nurses must take care to administer the correct medications in the correct doses and carefully monitor their reactions. Our attorneys are experienced at pursuing medication error claims.
If you have suffered a catastrophic personal injury or have lost a family member due to a doctor, hospital or other medical provider's failure to follow basic standards of care, don't hesitate to contact us for a free case evaluation.
