Over the years our firm has handled many cases involving medical negligence to that of both adults and children.  A brief list of some of the types of cases handled involving healthcare malpractice or nursing home negligence are as follows:

• Failure to diagnose breast cancer.

• Failure to diagnose throat cancer.

• Failure to diagnose larynx cancer.

• Nursing home negligence of a catastrophically brain injured adult.

• Failure to diagnose a fracture in a minor child which led to post-traumatic arthritis and multiple level joint fusions in the foot.

• Failure to remove a towel/sponge during surgery which caused ongoing abdominal pain for many years up until removal.

• Failure to diagnose and timely treat or repair an esophageal perforation

• Child birth cases.

• Wrongful Death.

Examples of various child birth cases handled are:

• Hospital nursing negligence.

• Obstetrical negligence in failing to properly perform fetal heart monitoring.

• Failure to perform any fetal heart monitoring.

• Failure to perform C-section in a timely fashion.

• Failure to undertake proper prenatal care of a diabetic mom.

• Seriously injured babies during child birth some of which are permanently disfigured, brain damaged and catastrophically injured

In several of the child birth cases handled by this office, many of the babies and children have been catastrophically injured.  For example, children have sustained birth injuries of cerebral palsy, blindness, hearing loss, neurological damage, brain damage, burns due to being exposed to entirely too much post delivery heat in an oxygen sensitive environment and other serious injuries.  These are very sad cases, but we were able to financially prosecute a case like these for parents and families who did not have the ability to pay the charges for expert witnesses.  Given our years of experience in personal injury law, we have many expert physicians who will evaluate your case to see if medical negligence was committed.

Before any medical negligence cases are accepted, we exhaustively investigate the case. All medical negligence cases are defended and are costly. Therefore, it is important to know that before a medical negligence case is accepted and prosecuted to trial that the chances of success are excellent.
