Medical malpractice occurs when a Rio Vista healthcare provider deviates from accepted standards of medical care, causing serious injuries or death. Common hospital negligence that leads to medical malpractice claims involves:

• Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis of critical conditions like strokes, heart attacks, sepsis or cancer
• Improper or contraindicated medication administered in the hospital
• Surgical mistakes and patient monitoring errors
• Birth injuries and errors during child delivery

Rio Vista residents rely on several major hospitals and medical centers for care:

NorthBay Medical Center - Full-service hospital offering advanced emergency, critical care, diagnostic and surgical services plus a Birth Center with family suites.

Kaiser Permanente Vallejo Medical Center - 154-bed hospital providing 24/7 emergency care, medical imaging, lab services surgery and specialty treatment.

No matter which local hospital or medical facility errors occurred in, suffering catastrophic injury due to negligence can devastate Rio Vista area families. Our dedicated medical malpractice lawyers have a proven record of results holding healthcare providers accountable so victims have resources needed for long-term treatment and care.

Pursuing fair compensation in medical malpractice cases demands precise investigation, meticulous record gathering, specialized medical insight and aggressive negotiation tactics. Moseley Collins Law has four decades of focused expertise in hospital negligence cases, which sets us apart from general personal injury firms.

Our extensive experience with medical malpractice litigation gives us distinct advantages that benefit victims, such as:

We have recovered millions for numerous clients in settlements and verdicts over 40+ years. Our history of results gives us credibility that commands attention when negotiating or arguing before juries.

For each claim, we hire a minimum of four independent specialists to scrutinize records and provide unbiased insight on standards of care. Credible, impartial expert testimony is key for proving negligence.

We understand medical malpractice can devastate not just health but family relationships and stability. Our lawyers and staff provide empathetic support throughout the litigation process as we pursue justice.

Holding hospitals and healthcare providers responsible for errors requires tireless dedication as opposing counsel vigorously defends cases. We will not be deterred from proving negligence even in complex scenarios.

If your family is considering filing a medical negligence lawsuit for a birth injury, surgical mistake or fatal hospital error, rely on a law firm that will not hesitate to take the case to trial if necessary. Moseley Collins Law is prepared for the hard fight so victims can focus on healing while we build the strongest case possible.

Medical malpractice cases demand adherence to strict California statutes of limitations defining required timeframes for filing lawsuits after incidents of negligence.

In general there are two deadlines Rio Vista plaintiffs must meet:

• Notice of Intent to Sue: Within 90 days of discovering an injury was caused by medical negligence, your lawyer must file a Notice of Intent to Sue with the doctor or hospital. This notice gives them 90 days to respond before allowing a lawsuit.
• Filing a Complaint: If no settlement is reached after the notice, the statute of limitations allows 1 year from the incident date or discovery of negligence for your lawyer to formally file a lawsuit complaint. Exceeding this deadline forfeits your rights to legal recovery.

However, state laws include exceptions that extend or "toll" the statute of limitations deadlines under certain conditions - such as plaintiffs remaining under the care of negligent health providers beyond the incident date.

Given varying statutes and numerous exceptions, having an experienced medical malpractice lawyer on your side is imperative for Rio Vista claimants hoping to secure their full entitlement to compensation in the limited timeframe allowed.

Hospitals throughout Solano County see thousands of patients every year, and errors inevitably happen during some treatments leading to serious harm. Yet medical malpractice litigation remains extremely uncommon, given the complexity, costs and vigorous defense tactics aimed at protecting reputations and avoiding large payouts.

In fact, most lawyers turn down 99.9% of requests to pursue medical negligence complaints. But over four decades, Moseley Collins Law has developed highly-specialized skills at overcoming daunting legal and medical barriers to successfully resolving even the toughest hospital injury cases involving:

• Brain damage
• Spinal cord injuries
• Cerebral palsy
• Severe infection
• Stroke
• Amputation
• Grief following wrongful death

Our unwavering commitment gives hope to distraught Rio Vista families struggling in the aftermath of medical errors when other firms balk at the challenges of establishing negligence - even with stacked odds and endless excuses deployed by hospital defense lawyers. We independently gather all salient records, hire multiple medical experts to pinpoint breaches in standards of care and build an ironclad argument about what should have been done to prevent catastrophic outcomes for patients.

And unlike TV ads boasting about legal victories for clients, we do not use made up testimonials but have hundreds of authentic 5-star client reviews that speak to our dedication. While past results don’t guarantee future outcomes, our proven history recovering millions in verdicts and settlements demonstrates the ability to successfully stand up to healthcare institutions and fight for real accountability even in the most heartbreaking, emotionally-charged medical malpractice cases involving serious injury or death of loved ones.

Don’t wait to learn if what happened to your family warrants a medical malpractice lawsuit. Call Moseley Collins Law at (800) 426-5546 for caring, honest guidance on your options and to see if we may be a good fit to represent your best interests in this difficult time. Our experience successfully resolving Northern California’s most complex medical negligence claims can offer hope for finally getting accountability and the maximum compensation you deserve.

You must show a healthcare professional-patient relationship existed that established a duty of care which was then breached through substandard treatment falling below accepted medical practice, and this breach directly caused significant injuries.

Compensation can address medical costs, lost wages, loss of future earnings, rehabilitation, permanent disabilities, pain/suffering and more based on the unique losses you face. Families may also recover wrongful death damages.

Every case is different. The ultimate value depends on factors like available insurance coverage, case expenses, proving liability and the full scope of losses involved.

We only accept settlement offers our clients agree to. And we fully prepare every case for trial, showing the opposition we have the evidence and willpower to convince juries to deliver verdicts far exceeding unjust proposals. Going to court always risks getting nothing, but also holds potential for millions more in damages only a jury can award. We help analyze options so clients make informed decisions about final settlement vs. litigation.

Let us help answer all your questions about medical negligence claims and options for getting accountability for preventable errors that devastated your family. We know the pain of grieving lost loved ones while struggling to pay mounting costs can be unbearable without dedicated legal advocates in your corner.
