Venersborg Medical Malpractice Lawyers

When doctors make mistakes, lives change forever. Here in Venersborg, Washington, we've seen how medical errors can turn families' worlds upside down. If you're dealing with the aftermath of a medical mistake, you need someone who understands both the law and what you're going through. At Moseley Collins Law, we've spent over 40 years standing up for people just like you.

Think of medical malpractice as a breach of trust. It happens when doctors, nurses, or other healthcare workers make mistakes that hurt patients. While most healthcare providers do their best, sometimes things go wrong. In Washington State, you have the right to seek compensation when medical professionals fail to provide proper care.

Let's talk about the kinds of cases we handle regularly:

• Surgeons operating on the wrong body part or leaving tools inside patients
• Doctors missing obvious signs of serious illness
• Pharmacy mix-ups with medications
• Mistakes during childbirth that harm mother or baby
• Problems with anesthesia during surgery
• Emergency rooms sending home seriously ill patients
• Preventable infections from unclean hospital conditions
• Doctors not telling patients about important treatment risks

Our community relies on several major hospitals and medical centers. While these facilities generally provide good care, problems can occur at any of them:

• PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center : Known for emergency and specialty care
• Legacy Salmon Creek Medical Center : Serving northern Clark County
• Kaiser Permanente Cascade Park Medical Office : Offering various outpatient services

Let's be clear about what can happen when healthcare goes wrong. Johns Hopkins Medicine found something shocking - medical errors are now the third biggest cause of death in our country. We've seen patients suffer from:

• Permanent disabilities that change their whole life
• Brain injuries that affect everything from memory to movement
• Major organ damage requiring lifelong care
• Severe nerve damage causing constant pain
• Dangerous infections that won't go away
