Medical Malpractice
A medical mistake can shatter not only a person's life by causing severe injury, permanent disability or even death, but it also affects the lives of that person's family.

Medical malpractice cases can include injuries and deaths caused by:

• Surgical and/or Medical Treatment Mistakes
• Failure to Diagnose
• Failure to Refer a Patient to a Specialist
• Negligent Medical or Hospital Care
• Prescription Medication Mistakes
• Birth Injuries
• Nursing Home Negligence

Other medical negligence (depending on the specific facts and injury) may warrant a malpractice suit as well.

These cases can be complicated, but our attorneys have experience in both sides of medical malpractice litigation. This past experience on the medical side of such malpractice cases has given us a unique insight on how medical providers and their insurance companies defend again these valid claims. When you have to pursue legal remedies in the medical arena, you want an experienced firm on your side. We'll prepare you for the often complex and emotional depositions and trial testimony required for these types of cases. We'll also work with medical experts who can provide testimony on your behalf.

While we share in the concern that frivolous lawsuits may adversely affect the healthcare industry, the Vrdolyak Law Group maintains high standards to only file medical malpractice lawsuits that are warranted and involve clear instances of medical negligence. In fact, before we file any medical malpractice suit, a board certified physician reviews the medical malpractice claim and makes a determination that the doctor, hospital or other medical provider has violated the appropriate medical standard of care.

While filing a medical malpractice suit is never pleasant, it is often necessary. Health care providers who have been negligent need to take responsibility, and injured parties or their families should be compensated for their emotional and physical pain as well as the disability or death of their loved ones. Our firm works to ensure that physicians, hospitals and other providers assume their share of responsibility when negligent treatment occurs. Remember, no hourly fees are assessed for medical malpractice cases.
