Medical Malpractice Lawyer in Winlock, WA

Medical mistakes can turn your life upside down in an instant. Here in Winlock, Washington, we see the real impact these errors have on local families every day. When healthcare providers make preventable mistakes, you need someone who understands both the medical and legal sides of your case. At Moseley Collins Law, we've spent over 40 years helping people just like you get back on their feet after medical injuries.

When you go to a doctor or hospital, you expect proper care. Medical malpractice happens when healthcare providers don't meet basic standards of care, and patients get hurt as a result. These cases get complicated fast - you need medical experts to review records and explain what went wrong. Our team knows how to investigate these cases and find answers for our clients.

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

• Surgeons operating on the wrong body part or leaving tools inside patients
• Doctors missing obvious signs of serious illness
• Pharmacies giving out wrong medications or doses
• Injuries to babies during birth
• Problems with anesthesia during surgery
• Emergency rooms sending home patients having heart attacks or strokes
• Doctors not telling patients about serious risks before procedures
• Preventable infections from unclean hospital conditions

Our community relies on several local healthcare facilities:

• Providence Centralia Hospital - A full-service hospital serving Lewis County
• Morton General Hospital - Critical access hospital for east county residents
• Arbor Health - Local healthcare network

The numbers tell a shocking story about medical errors in America:

Research from Johns Hopkins found medical mistakes kill more people than everything except heart disease and cancer. The government's National Practitioner Data Bank shows thousands of patients get hurt by medical errors each year. These mistakes cost billions in extra medical care.
