Dental Malpractice Lawyer
Helping Victims in Seattle, Kirkland, Bellevue, Everett, & the Greater Washington State Area
Dentists, like any other medical professionals, are responsible for keeping up a certain standard of professional care. When they don’t, and a patient is injured, you may have the grounds for a claim for compensation. Dental injuries can be physically painful and they may lead to other health complications. Additionally, dental issues can be traumatic, and an exceptionally frightening experience with the dentist can leave a lasting mark via mental or emotional trauma.
If you’ve been injured, our legal team at Lindquist & Kornfeld can help prove that the standard of care was neglected while you received treatment, thus causing your injury. Attorney Kornfeld has more than 40 years of legal experience behind him and he has obtained more than $35 in compensation for his clients. If you were harmed, our firm has the resources and the skill to fight for your right to maximum compensation.
Call (425) 657-5255 to discuss your case with Attorney Rob Kornfeld today.
Common Causes of Dental Negligence
Dental malpractice, like any form of medical malpractice, can have lasting effects on a victim’s physical and mental wellbeing. Malpractice can occur when there is a lack of information or consent, causing a miscommunication before or during a procedure.
Malpractice can also occur in the following scenarios:
- A failure to diagnose
- Failure to treat an issue or complication
- Failure to oversee the actions of employees and staff
- Failure to refer to a specialist
- Performing the wrong procedures, including tooth extraction, or performing procedures negligently
Robert Kornfeld, our dental malpractice attorney, is well-known for his determination to fight for his clients and their right to compensation. You do not have to face a serious injury on your own; Lindquist & Kornfeld is on your side.

“Just a short note to congratulate you on a fine piece of lawyering. I meant what I said at the end of our mediation that your client was lucky to have you. You really added value to her case and should be proud of your work. I am!”
