Cancer Misdiagnosis Lawyer in Pennsylvania & New Jersey

If a delayed diagnosis made your cancer harder to treat—or cost a loved one their life—we’re here to help.

When Doctors Miss the Window to Treat

A timely cancer diagnosis can make all the difference. But when symptoms are dismissed, test results are misread, or referrals aren’t made, the chance to detect cancer early slips away. That delay can change everything—from treatment options to life expectancy. If you or a loved one is facing a later-stage cancer diagnosis due to medical negligence, we’ll help you pursue justice and clarity.

How Cancer Diagnosis Failures Happen

Doctors, radiologists, and lab technicians all play a role in detecting cancer early. But serious mistakes happen when:

  • Primary doctors fail to follow up on symptoms
  • Imaging results are misinterpreted
  • Biopsies are delayed or not ordered
  • Patients aren’t referred to specialists
  • Test results are lost, misread, or never communicated
  • Family history or risk factors are ignored

We help uncover how the failure occurred and who was responsible.

Cancer Misdiagnosis in Pennsylvania or New Jersey?

Start with answers, not confusion.

  • What types of cancer are most often misdiagnosed?

    Cancers that share symptoms with more common illnesses—like lung, colon, breast, ovarian, or pancreatic cancer—are often misdiagnosed or diagnosed late. These errors can occur when doctors ignore symptoms, dismiss patient concerns, or fail to follow standard protocols for screening and follow-up testing.

  • Can I sue if my diagnosis was delayed but I’m still alive?

    Yes. Even if you survived, a delayed diagnosis may have led to more aggressive treatment, long-term health impacts, or reduced life expectancy. You may have a valid claim for those losses, and we’ll help you understand whether a lawsuit is appropriate based on your case.

  • Who is responsible in a cancer misdiagnosis case?

    Depending on the facts, responsibility may lie with a primary care doctor, radiologist, pathologist, or other medical professionals. Sometimes, hospitals or health systems are also liable. We conduct a thorough review of your records and work with independent experts to determine fault.

  • What if I didn’t learn about the mistake until years later?

    Both Pennsylvania and New Jersey have a discovery rule that may allow you to file a claim within two years of learning about the error, even if the diagnosis happened earlier. But time is still limited, so reach out as soon as possible to preserve your rights.

  • How much does it cost to hire your firm?

    We work on a contingency fee basis. That means you don’t pay anything upfront—and we only get paid if we win your case. The consultation is free, and you’ll speak directly with an attorney about your situation.
