Benton City Medical Malpractice Lawyers

When something goes wrong during medical treatment, it can turn your whole world upside down. Here in Benton City, Washington, we've seen how medical mistakes can devastate families - both emotionally and financially. If you're dealing with injuries caused by a healthcare provider's mistake, you need someone who understands both the medical and legal sides of your situation.

Think of medical malpractice as a healthcare provider dropping the ball - not giving the kind of care that any reasonably skilled doctor or nurse would provide in the same situation. At Moseley Collins Law, we've spent over 40 years helping people just like you figure out if they have a case and what to do next.

We know these cases inside and out, but every situation is different. Maybe a doctor missed obvious warning signs of a serious condition. Or perhaps a surgeon made a preventable mistake during a routine procedure. Whatever happened, we'll help you understand if it crosses the line into medical malpractice.

Medical errors can leave lasting scars - both visible and invisible. Some of the most common problems we see include:

• Surgery on the wrong body part or wrong patient
• Missed cancer diagnoses that allow the disease to spread
• Mixed-up medications or wrong dosages
• Injuries to babies during birth
• Problems with anesthesia during procedures
• Infections from unclean hospital conditions
• Rushed mistakes in emergency rooms
• Procedures done without properly explaining the risks

This isn't just about individual cases. Research from Johns Hopkins Medicine found that medical errors are now the third biggest cause of death in our country. Another eye-opening study in the Journal of Patient Safety shows that preventable medical mistakes harm hundreds of thousands of patients every year. These aren't just numbers - they're real people whose lives have been changed forever.

Our community is served by several healthcare facilities. While most provide excellent care, things can go wrong at any of them:

• Kadlec Regional Medical Center
• Prosser Memorial Health
• Trios Health
