Medical Malpractice Lawyer in Tri-City, OR

When something goes wrong during medical treatment, it changes lives forever. At Moseley Collins Law, we see it every day - families struggling to cope with injuries caused by medical mistakes, wondering how to move forward. Our law firm has spent over 40 years helping people just like you in the Tri-City area navigate these difficult situations. We work hard to help injured patients get back on their feet while making sure healthcare providers take responsibility when their care falls short.

Healthcare providers make a promise to "do no harm." When they break this promise by providing care that falls below professional standards, it's called medical malpractice. Oregon law protects patients in these situations. But proving medical malpractice isn't simple - you need to show that your doctor or nurse didn't meet basic care standards and that their mistake directly caused your injury.

Every medical malpractice case tells a different story. Some cases involve quick, obvious mistakes that happen in surgery. Others develop slowly over time, like when a doctor misses warning signs of a serious illness. Here are some common situations we see:

Sometimes things go terribly wrong in the operating room. Surgeons might operate on the wrong body part or leave surgical tools inside a patient. Anesthesiologists might make dosing errors that cause brain damage. Even after surgery, poor monitoring can lead to dangerous infections.

When doctors fail to spot serious conditions like cancer early enough, patients lose precious treatment time. Sometimes doctors mistake one condition for another, leading to months of wrong treatments that make things worse instead of better. We often see cases where doctors didn't order basic tests that would have caught the problem early.

Medication errors happen more often than most people realize. Doctors might prescribe the wrong drug or the wrong dose. Nurses might give medications to the wrong patient. Sometimes the pharmacy fills the prescription incorrectly. These mistakes can cause serious harm, especially when doctors don't check for drug interactions or allergies.

The Tri-City area has several important medical centers. While most care at these facilities goes well, problems can happen anywhere:

• Main regional hospital
• Handles serious trauma cases

• Community hospital
• 24-hour emergency care

Samaritan Lebanon Community Hospital

• Local medical center
• Specialty departments

Medical mistakes can cause devastating injuries that change lives forever. Recent studies from the Journal of Patient Safety show that medical errors lead to more than 250,000 deaths each year in America. Beyond deaths, we regularly see:

• Brain injuries from oxygen loss
• Paralysis from spinal cord damage
• Injuries to mothers and babies during birth
• Permanent organ damage
• Deaths that could have been prevented

The effects of medical malpractice often last long after leaving the hospital:

• Regular doctor visits and therapy sessions
• Lost jobs and career changes
• Permanent disabilities requiring home modifications
• Depression and anxiety
• Family relationships strained by caregiving needs
