Did a Doctor Fail to Diagnose and Treat Illness in Your Family?
A failure to diagnose serious illness — such as cancer, heart disease or infection — can be extremely serious because early detection is so important in all such cases. Even a relatively short delay of a few days or weeks can make the difference between full recovery and death in some cases.
In a legal climate that makes proving medical malpractice and winning just compensation increasingly challenging, we actively continue to pursue malpractice cases.
Please consult us today if you are suffering due to a failure to diagnose your condition properly and take action — or if you have lost a family member and suspect such negligence.
Taking the Time to Investigate All Angles on Your Injury or Loss
Our attorneys' clear mission and our firm's solid financial resources enable us to pursue lawsuits others may see as too complex. Turning to experienced physicians and other medical experts as necessary, we look into factors such as whether:
- Your family history and known risks were taken into account
- Appropriate tests were ordered and performed in a timely manner, and results properly read
- A doctor rushed the diagnosis or was not qualified and should have referred you or consulted someone else
- Failure to diagnose your illness or a serious injury — such as a concussion or other brain injury — was caused by the lack of diligence alarmingly common in today's emergency rooms
Simply stated, medical professionals usually deny failures to diagnose and other serious types of negligence. Medical malpractice insurance companies want to avoid paying substantial claims and minimize the real costs to individuals and families. These factors and more make it essential to work with proven trial lawyers and a law firm that has the resources to take your case all the way through trial.
