Medical Malpractice

Every day, patients consult physicians regarding minor or major health problems, in search of hope and healing. But sometimes mistakes occur, resulting in permanent, life-changing or even fatal injury to the patient. According to a conservative estimate by the Institute of Medicine, medical errors are the eighth leading cause of death in the U.S., and preventable medical errors cost the nation about $17 billion annually.

Victims of medical malpractice may be entitled to compensation for lost income, the cost of health and personal care, and other damages related to their injuries. Grieving survivors of medical malpractice victims can also pursue payment for damages in a wrongful death claim.
