Recovering Damages for Medical Malpractice for More Than 30 Years
Our law firm has helped families recover from the negligent failure to treat heart attack symptoms since 1976. With a selective caseload and a client service ethic based on highly individualized attention to each case, our lawyers are recognized leaders in helping medical malpractice victims recover compensation in the full amount of their losses.
We have two principal goals in medical malpractice litigation. First, we work to ensure that your claim presents a fully documented case indicating the liability of the defendant physician or hospital for your family's loss. Next, we protect the value of your claim by making sure that each component of your damages demand is supported by clear and credible evidence.
Our advice through the pretrial stages of a case can protect you from an insufficient settlement. Our decades of experience with medical malpractice litigation and our careful attention to the damages side of your case can give you a good idea of the value of your case, backed up by our commitment to help you collect as much as the law will allow through trial if we are unable to negotiate an acceptable settlement.
Failure to treat heart attack symptoms can take many forms. An emergency room physician might refuse to admit a patient undergoing cardiac arrest. A primary care doctor might fail to order an EKG. A heart surgeon might make a critical mistake during angioplasty, or might miss the bleeding that follows an abrupt stent closure.
We won a $1.75 million jury verdict against a cardiologist after the death of a woman whose treatment team failed to respond effectively to her complaints of unusual chest pain following a coronary angioplasty procedure. She died from a perforation in her coronary artery. In the same case, we reached a confidential settlement against the hospital as well for the role its nurses played in this tragic outcome.
