Medical Malpractice Lawyer
Phoenix, Glendale and Mesa, Arizona
Unfortunately, many physicians fail to provide their patients with a standard of care consistent with others in their profession. When medical malpractice occurs, consequences extend beyond a breach of trust. They often result in lifelong disabilities and even wrongful death.
Bringing Those Accountable to Justice
From the surgeon to the EMT, any physician or hospital employee can be held accountable for medical malpractice. Neglect and failure to provide an appropriate standard of care can occur at any point you are in contact with a medical professional, including:
- In the ambulance ride
- During a pre-operative consultation where a surgeon decides to delay surgery
- In the confines of an emergency room waiting area
- During a routine examination with a physician leading to misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis
- When a physician's negligence results in birth injuries
- While under anesthesia and a surgical error occurs
Financial Compensation for Medical Malpractice
Injuries sustained due to a physician's negligence can be catastrophic. Depending on the circumstances of your case, you may be entitled to damages for:
- Current and future medical bills
- Loss of wages
- Loss of companionship in the unfortunate scenario of wrongful death
- Disabilities inflicted
- Reduced quality of life
- Pain and suffering

- The medical professional failed to adhere to this standard

Medical malpractice cases are often complicated by coworkers who are reluctant to testify, tampering of medical records, and statutes of limitations restricting the time frame you can pursue compensation for your damages.
