Salt Lake City Lawyers for People Harmed by Medical Negligence

Serious medical mistakes occur in many forms: some are active errors such as a botched surgery or administering the wrong medication, but many others involve failures in staffing, training and documentation. We recognize that you may not know precisely who — or what entity — caused harm to you or your family.

At Eisenberg & Gilchrist, our team of attorneys has pursued numerous cases involving negligence by hospital administrators, nurses and other health care professionals. Contact us for counsel. You can depend on our familiarity with the corporate structures of Utah hospitals, the chains of responsibility, and how best to pursue your valid claim.

Strong Resources to Untangle Medical Negligence and Prove Liability

Nurses bear tremendous responsibility for direct patient care and, unfortunately, they are often pushed beyond their capacity or required to perform duties outside of their training. Our lawyers are prepared to thoroughly evaluate and take aggressive action on matters of:

  • Nursing negligence such as failing to adequately supervise patients with serious illnesses and injuries — or nurses' inability to do so because of circumstances for which a hospital must be prepared
  • Medication and documentation errors, including overdoses and failures to properly document patient allergies and family histories
  • Emergency room negligence
  • General hospital negligence, including issues of understaffing and use of under trained nursing staff

Calling on highly qualified expert resources whenever required, in areas ranging from general practice to pathology and nursing, our experienced medical malpractice and negligence lawyers know how to gather key facts and determine whether a doctor, nurse or hospital is liable for damages in your case.
