Medical Malpractice Lawyer in Port Townsend, WA

When a doctor's mistake changes your life in Port Townsend, you need someone who understands both the law and your community. Here at Moseley Collins Law, we've walked alongside countless families through their medical malpractice cases. For more than 40 years, we've been helping people just like you get back on their feet after medical errors have turned their lives upside down.

Sometimes doctors make mistakes. But not every mistake is medical malpractice. In simple terms, medical malpractice happens when a healthcare worker - like a doctor, nurse, or therapist - makes a mistake that other healthcare workers wouldn't typically make, and that mistake hurts the patient.

Think of it this way: if most doctors would have done something differently in the same situation, and their way would have kept you safe, you might have a medical malpractice case.

Port Townsend residents rely on several healthcare facilities for their medical needs. We're familiar with all of them:

• Jefferson Healthcare Medical Center: Our main hospital serving the peninsula
• Port Townsend Family Physicians: Primary care services

Nobody expects to come out of surgery worse than they went in. But it happens. We've seen cases where:

• Surgeons operated on the wrong body part
• Medical tools were left inside patients
• Anesthesia went wrong
• Infections spread because of unclean conditions

Sometimes the worst medical mistake is the one that hasn't happened yet. When doctors miss signs of serious illness, precious treatment time is lost. This includes:

• Cancer that wasn't caught early enough
• Heart attacks dismissed as anxiety
• Strokes mistaken for migraines
• Life-threatening infections overlooked

One wrong pill can change everything. We've handled cases involving:

• Prescriptions with dangerous drug interactions
• Wrong doses given to patients
• Medications given to the wrong patient
• Allergic reactions that should have been prevented

We do things differently here. While many law firms take a one-size-fits-all approach, we:

• Bring over 40 years of focused experience to your case
• Have won millions for our clients (though every case is different)
• Earned hundreds of 5-star Google reviews
• Offer free, no-pressure consultations

When you trust us with your case, we:

1. Gather every medical record related to your care
2. Look at whether the hospital followed its own safety rules
3. Find expert witnesses who can explain what went wrong
4. Document every way the medical mistake has affected your life

The birth of your child should be joyful, not tragic. We handle cases involving:

• Brain damage from lack of oxygen
• Nerve injuries during delivery

• Delayed C-sections

When minutes count, mistakes cost lives:

• Patients sent home with serious conditions
• Critical treatments delayed
• People turned away without proper screening
• Heart attacks and strokes misdiagnosed

As a patient, you have clear rights:

1. To receive care that meets medical standards
2. To know the risks before you agree to treatment
