The firm regularly represents individuals and their families who have suffered serious injury or death as a result of medical malpractice. Medical Malpractice is the failure of a medical professional to meet the specific "standard of care" in the area in which the medical professional practices. A medical professional can be a doctor, a nurse, a medical technician, a hospital, nursing home or other health care provider. If the medical professional fails to comply with the applicable standard of care and the patient suffers injury or death, the medical professional is liable for damages.
The law in Alabama works strongly in favor of health care providers and against patients who file lawsuits. There is also a positive public perception of health care providers generally in Alabama. These factors operate to present special challenges when a claim for medical malpractice is made. The firm's careful selection of meritorious cases and our exhaustive preparation of those cases have resulted in successful recoveries in these cases for our clients.
