Medical Malpractice Lawyer in Whidbey Island, WA

When a doctor's mistake changes your life, you need someone who understands both the law and what you're going through. Here on Whidbey Island, medical errors can feel especially personal – we're a close-knit community where many of us know our healthcare providers. But when things go wrong, you deserve answers and support.

Think of medical malpractice like a broken promise. Your healthcare provider promised to take care of you, but something went seriously wrong. Maybe they missed something important on your X-ray, gave you the wrong medicine, or made a mistake during surgery. At Moseley Collins Law, we've spent over 40 years helping people just like you make sense of these situations.
