When healthcare professionals break their promise to “first, do no harm,” patients who suffer death or serious injury should receive complete justice from our legal system.

Cases involving medical malpractice and healthcare negligence stand out as the most emotionally intense legal matters. It is easy to see why. Healthcare professionals serve as our primary source of treatment for our injuries and illnesses. People who trusted their physicians to protect them have had their lives destroyed or suffered severe damage because of those doctors’ negligence.

Medical malpractice among doctors who have violated their duty and failed to provide accepted standards of care can take many forms, including:

• Failure to diagnose or mistakes in diagnoses
• Failure to treat or improper treatment
• Failure to warn a patient of known risks
• Surgical errors or complications
• Birth-related injuries such as brain damage
• Prescription drug errors

Medical Malpractice Attorneys Who Know the Ropes

When a physician commits medical malpractice, victims often experience a significant emotional reaction along with the physical injuries they suffer. Instead of receiving treatment for a health problem, they may find themselves facing greater injuries that require even more extensive treatment. As they rack up expensive medical bills and are forced to take time off from work to recover, stress further prolongs the healing process.

So it is easy to understand the value of a medical malpractice law firm who has more than 45 years’ experience helping thousands of clients secure compensation to pay for medical expenses, pain and suffering, and lost wages due to medical malpractice.

The complexity of litigation explains why medical malpractice cases stand out as some of the most challenging legal battles. Searcy Denney’s Florida medical malpractice lawyers display extensive strategic abilities and solid proof together with expert witnesses who deliver unshakable testimony. Medical malpractice lawyers face the challenge of interpreting complex medical information for judges and jurors who lack medical training. The ultimate goal of these legal efforts is to demonstrate that a healthcare provider acted outside the professional standard of care expected in the medical field. . . and that’s a large order.

Medical Malpractice Law Firm That Draws on All Its Resources

The burden of proof required in these cases exceeds the abilities of many attorneys and law firms. The financial resources of many medical malpractice lawyers are insufficient to match those available to health care providers and their insurance companies. Some lawyers and law firms lack both a fervent dedication to justice as well as established national success and reputation.

But in three and a half decades of representing victims of medical malpractice, our well-versed team of Florida medical malpractice lawyers, investigators, insurance experts, and healthcare experts knows how to reach fair settlements and get justice at trial. Just a few examples:

• A confidential settlement on behalf of a four-year-old girl whose doctor failed to diagnose or treat the meningitis that killed her.
