Medical Malpractice Cases
People trust their medical caregivers immensely but sometimes that trust is misplaced. Every year, between 44,000 and 96,000 people die in the U.S. because of medical negligence. Even taking the lower figure of 44,000, that means that more people die from medical malpractice than from car accidents or breast cancer [1].
Hospitals and physicians are covered by extensive medical malpractice insurance plans. Those insurance companies have their own lawyers and experts who have only one job-to pay you as little as possible or nothing at all. Sometimes in your search for answers you may find that the medical providers you once trusted now treat you like the enemy.

- Failure to diagnose heart attack
- Errors in laparoscopic surgeries
- Emergency room negligence

- Prenatal injuries
