Wrongful Death
When a loved one dies while in the care of a medical facility, and you suspect the death was the result of medical negligence, a surgical error or a failure to follow correct procedure, it can be difficult to know what course of action to take to ensure that such devastating events do not affect others in the future. Attorney Susan A. Marks’ experience in working with medical professionals as an administrator has given her insight into wrongful death cases, knowing how to spot negligence or mistakes quickly and build a strong case.
Failure to Diagnose
Are you now suffering from a serious illness due to the lack of attention, care or proper diagnosis of emergency room personnel? Were you sent home early from the emergency room or hospital, only to have your illness or injury come back twofold? Living with the regret that a current medical condition, such as colon cancer or breast cancer, might have been caught in time if not for the negligence of a medical professional can be discouraging, greatly impacting your quality of life. Our firm takes on failure to diagnose cases head-on, aggressively pursuing compensation for our clients.
Surgical Errors
The proliferation of weight reduction surgical procedures has led to an increase in litigation. When a gastric bypass or gastric banding procedure goes wrong, the victim’s life is often irreparably changed. Any botched surgery can lead to serious medical complications such as infection, scaring and death. Not to mention the emotional consequences such as post traumatic stress disorder, unfulfilled expectations, guilt and resentment. Our attorney applies compassion and a desire for justice to obtain the highest compensation for our clients’ pain and suffering.
