AREAS OF PRACTICE
Medical Malpractice
Resch & Driscoll,
P.C. will review your potential Medical Malpractice claim.
Medical malpractice, or
negligence, occurs when a physician, dentist or other health
care provider fails to properly treat a medical condition and
the negligent act or omission is the cause of a new or aggravated
injury to the patient.
Acts of medical
malpractice can involve:
- The failure
to properly perform surgery or provide medical treatment
- A
physician's failure to timely diagnose a disease or condition
- A
failure to obtain informed consent of the patient for an
operation or surgical procedure
- Misuse of
prescription drugs, medical devices or implants
- Performing
unnecessary surgery
- Incorrectly
interpreting diagnostic tests and studies
Malpractice
claims can also involve the negligent actions of:
- Hospital
nurses
- Other employees
Our
law firm believes that the keys to successfully representing
our medical malpractice clients
consist of three elements:
- 1st, thorough
knowledge and experience in the use of expert medical witnesses
who can
establish the
standard
of care required.
- 2nd, a sensitivity
to the trauma and psychological effects on the individual
and their family
caused by being negligently treated.
- 3rd,
the willingness to aggressively litigate against an unyielding
and
difficult adversary
to obtain
compensation for the wrong.
The injuries
that the law provides a right to compensation include:
- Death
- Permanent
Disability
- Physical
Pain
- Emotional
Distress
- A Loss of
Enjoyment of Life
- Permanent
Disfigurement or Scarring
- Medical Bills
and Lost Wages
Should you
believe you or a family member have a claim for medical
malpractice we will assist you in obtaining a copy of the
pertinent medical records and have them reviewed by a component
medical expert. There are time deadlines for the filing of
malpractice claims. Accordingly, if you believe that you or
somebody you know has suffered an injury because of medical
negligence
