Medical malpractice impacts thousands of Californians every year, causing life-altering suffering. We have experience with many types of medical negligence cases, enabling us to determine what went wrong in your situation and who should be held accountable. Some examples of medical errors resulting in injury or death that warrant investigation into a malpractice lawsuit include:

Being given the wrong medication, incorrect dosage, or experiencing an adverse reaction can all constitute negligence. Medication errors are especially common after discharge, highlighting the need for proper instructions.

Botched operations, surgery on the wrong site, unnecessary procedures, retained foreign objects and improper wound closure can lead to permanent impairment or additional health issues.

Failure to promptly and properly diagnose conditions like cancer, infections, or bleeding in the brain costs precious time and leads to worse prognoses. Catching these conditions early is critical.

Poor doctor response to fetal distress, improper use of birth instruments, inadequate emergency c-section procedures, etc. can leave infants with cerebral palsy, paralysis, developmental delays and other impediments.

Bedsores, falls, malnutrition, dehydration, excessive restraint use, emotional abuse, and other forms of nursing home negligence cause undue pain and suffering.
