Medical Malpractice: Seeking Justice for Negligent Care
Medical malpractice cases demand meticulous attention to detail and an unyielding dedication to justice. When healthcare professionals fail to meet established standards of care, the repercussions can be devastating. At Strickland, Diviney & Segura, we specialize in holding negligent medical providers accountable and helping victims rebuild their lives.
Types of Medical Malpractice Cases We Handle:
- Surgical Errors: Mistakes such as operating on the wrong site, leaving instruments in the patient’s body, or conducting unnecessary surgeries can lead to severe consequences. We work with medical experts to uncover negligence and build a compelling case.
- Misdiagnosis and Delayed Diagnosis: Failure to promptly diagnose conditions like cancer, strokes, or infections can have catastrophic outcomes. Our team collaborates with trusted medical specialists to establish liability.
- Birth Injuries: Errors during childbirth, including improper use of forceps or failure to monitor fetal distress, can result in lifelong disabilities or maternal injury. We fight for families impacted by these tragic events.
- Medication and Anesthesia Errors: Incorrect dosages or improperly administered anesthesia can cause severe harm or even death. We investigate these incidents to secure compensation for victims and their families.
- Failure to Obtain Informed Consent: Patients have the right to be fully informed of risks before medical procedures. We hold providers accountable for violating this essential trust.
Victims of medical malpractice often face overwhelming financial burdens, emotional trauma, and diminished quality of life. Our attorneys leave no stone unturned in investigating these cases, working alongside leading medical experts to secure justice. Whether negotiating settlements or fighting in court, we strive to recover compensation that addresses medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering.
Personal Injury: Advocacy for Accident Victims
Personal injuries can disrupt every aspect of your life. At Strickland, Diviney & Segura, we are dedicated to easing your burden and helping you secure the compensation you deserve. Our comprehensive personal injury services cover a wide range of cases, each approached with diligence and care.
Motor Vehicle Accidents
Car, truck, motorcycle, and rideshare accidents can result in serious injuries and financial hardship. We investigate each accident thoroughly, gathering evidence to establish fault and advocating for compensation that includes medical bills, lost wages, and emotional distress.
Premises Liability
Property owners have a legal responsibility to maintain safe conditions. Injuries from slip-and-falls, defective staircases, or inadequate security can be life-changing. Our attorneys work to prove negligence and secure fair compensation for victims.
Catastrophic Injuries
Traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, and severe burns often require long-term medical care and rehabilitation. We fight to recover compensation that reflects the full scope of these life-altering injuries, ensuring your future needs are met.
Recreational and Boating Accidents
Recreational activities and boating accidents can lead to severe injuries due to negligence or unsafe conditions. We represent clients in these cases, holding at-fault parties accountable and securing justice for victims.
Our goal in every personal injury case is to advocate relentlessly for our clients’ rights. With compassion and expertise, we guide you through the legal process, ensuring that your voice is heard, and your recovery is prioritized.
Criminal Defense: Safeguarding Your Freedom
Facing criminal charges can be one of life’s most stressful experiences. At Strickland, Diviney & Segura, we provide strategic and aggressive defense to protect your rights and future. Our attorneys are experienced in handling a wide range of criminal cases, each requiring a tailored approach.
DUI/DWI Defense
DUI charges can result in harsh penalties, including fines, license suspension, and jail time. We examine every detail of your case, from the legality of the traffic stop to the accuracy of breathalyzer tests, to build a strong defense and reduce the impact on your life.
Drug Offenses
Drug-related charges, whether for possession or distribution, carry serious consequences. We scrutinize search procedures and evidence handling to uncover constitutional violations and weaken the prosecution’s case.
Violent Crimes
Charges like assault, domestic violence, or other violent offenses require a robust defense strategy. Our team challenges witness statements, analyzes forensic evidence, and works tirelessly to defend your freedom.
Theft and Property Crimes
Allegations of theft, burglary, or fraud can damage your reputation and future opportunities. We aim to reduce penalties, negotiate favorable outcomes, and, when possible, secure dismissals of charges.
Juvenile Defense
For minors facing criminal charges, we prioritize outcomes focused on rehabilitation. Our team works to ensure young clients avoid lasting legal consequences, allowing them to move forward with their lives.
At Strickland, Diviney & Segura, we approach every criminal case with dedication and attention to detail. From pretrial negotiations to courtroom representation, our attorneys fight for the best possible outcome.
