Medical Malpractice Liability

Medical malpractice occurs when a doctor or other healthcare provider delays or misdiagnoses an illness, delays or provides an incorrect treatment, causes further illness, causes additional injuries, or actions or inactions directly cause an untimely death.

The result of medical malpractice can affect the quality of life of the victim for years to come, permanently, or even directly cause or contribute to an untimely death that could have been avoided.

We appreciate the tremendous service doctors and healthcare professionals provide our families, friends and loved ones every day. However, there are occasions when medical doctors and healthcare professionals do not meet acceptable standards of medical care and treatment.

Insurance companies and hospitals are in a constant battle with legislators to further lower the maximum payouts allowable under the law for medical malpractice claims. When you file a medical malpractice claim the medical malpractice insurance companies will fight to pay you as little as possible as well. This can happen regardless of the full extent of your injuries, additional surgeries or medical treatment you may need in the future and the effects of the medical malpractice on the rest of your life.

The Law Offices of Peter A. Shapiro & Jonathan D. Wilson aggressively fights for medical malpractice victims in an effort to ensure they are fairly compensated for everything they are entitled to under the law. Depending upon the specific circumstances of a medical malpractice case, the victim may be entitled to seek compensation and damages for:

• Injuries as a direct result of the medical malpractice;
• Lost Wages;
• Medical Bills;
• Pain and Suffering;
• Permanent or long-term loss of quality of life;
• And when there is a loss of life, families may also seek compensation in a wrongful death case.
