Medical Malpractice Representation
When you visit a doctor, hospital, or healthcare professional, you place your trust in their expertise to provide safe, reliable care. Unfortunately, medical errors happen all too often, leaving patients and their families to deal with devastating consequences. At Strickland, Diviney & Segura, we stand with victims of medical malpractice, holding negligent medical providers accountable and pursuing the compensation you deserve for your suffering.
What Constitutes Medical Malpractice?
Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare professional or institution fails to meet the expected standard of care, causing harm to a patient. These claims can be challenging to prove, as they require demonstrating both a medical provider’s failure and the harm directly caused. Some common types of medical malpractice include:
- Diagnostic Failures: Misdiagnosing a condition, failing to diagnose it altogether, or delaying critical diagnoses can result in missed treatment opportunities and irreversible harm.
- Surgical Mistakes: Errors during surgery—such as operating on the wrong body part, leaving surgical tools inside a patient, or damaging nearby organs—can lead to life-threatening complications.
- Medication Errors: Administering the wrong medication or dosage, or overlooking harmful drug interactions, can cause severe side effects or worsen a patient’s condition.
- Birth Injuries: Negligence during childbirth can lead to injuries like cerebral palsy, nerve damage, or brain trauma, causing lifelong challenges for the baby and emotional distress for families.
- Anesthesia Negligence: Incorrect anesthesia administration or failure to monitor a patient can result in brain damage, nerve injuries, or even death.
