Medical Malpractice

When Medical Mistakes Cause Harm, We Help Make It Right

You trusted your doctors, nurses, or hospital to take care of you — not to overlook warning signs or make careless errors. But when something goes wrong and you’re left with serious injuries, unanswered questions, and mounting bills, it’s time to talk to someone who will take you seriously. We represent clients in Pennsylvania and New Jersey who have experienced medical malpractice, offering clear answers, focused attention, and a commitment to justice when the system breaks down.

Missed Heart Attacks

When doctors fail to recognize the early signs of a heart attack — like chest pain, shortness of breath, or fatigue — the consequences can be deadly. Delays in treatment often lead to permanent damage or worse. If your heart attack was misdiagnosed as something less serious, we can help investigate and hold the provider accountable.

Failure to Diagnose Cancer

Early diagnosis is critical for many types of cancer. When a doctor overlooks symptoms or misreads test results, precious time can be lost. These failures often result in more aggressive treatment, lower survival rates, or loss of life. We handle cases involving breast, lung, colon, and other forms of undiagnosed or delayed cancer.

Failure to Diagnose Stroke

Stroke symptoms are often mistaken for migraines, vertigo, or intoxication — especially in younger patients. A delay in diagnosis can lead to irreversible brain damage, paralysis, or death. If a hospital or ER failed to act quickly, we’ll help you understand your options and fight for the care you should have received.

Birth Injuries

No family should suffer the trauma of a preventable birth injury. We represent families affected by shoulder dystocia, lack of oxygen, brachial plexus injuries, and other labor and delivery complications caused by negligent care. These cases are personal — and we handle them with the compassion and persistence they deserve.

Surgical Errors

Surgery always comes with risks, but it should never involve avoidable mistakes. We represent clients harmed by wrong-site surgeries, anesthesia errors, retained surgical tools, or post-operative infections caused by poor follow-up care.

Hospital & Nursing Negligence

Hospitals are supposed to follow strict safety protocols — but when communication breaks down or staff are stretched too thin, patients suffer. We handle cases involving medication errors, charting mistakes, lack of monitoring, and failures in post-op or ICU care.

Nursing Home Negligence

If a loved one suffered unexplained injuries, pressure ulcers, malnutrition, or neglect in a nursing home or assisted living facility, it’s time to speak up. We represent families who want answers and accountability when care facilities fail to meet basic standards of safety and respect.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What counts as medical malpractice in Pennsylvania or New Jersey?

    Medical malpractice happens when a healthcare provider fails to meet the accepted standard of care — and that failure causes injury or harm. This can include misdiagnosis, delayed treatment, surgical mistakes, medication errors, or failure to monitor a patient. Not every bad outcome is malpractice, but if you suspect something went wrong that shouldn’t have, we’ll review your case and consult with experts to see if legal action is appropriate.

  • How do I prove that a doctor or hospital was negligent?

    Proving medical malpractice typically requires three things: showing that a provider had a duty of care, that they breached that duty by acting carelessly, and that the breach caused real harm. These cases often rely on expert testimony, medical records, and a close timeline of what happened. We handle all of that for you — and we’ll explain each step in plain English along the way.

  • Is there a time limit to file a malpractice claim?

    Yes. In both Pennsylvania and New Jersey, the statute of limitations for most medical malpractice cases is two years from the date of the injury — or from when you reasonably discovered it. There are special rules for cases involving minors or wrongful death, and some situations can shorten or extend that deadline. If you're unsure, don’t wait. Reach out now so we can protect your rights.

  • What can I be compensated for in a malpractice case?

    You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses (past and future), lost wages, loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and more. In the most serious cases, we may also pursue wrongful death damages or compensation for long-term care needs. We’ll review everything with you and make sure nothing is left off the table.

  • Will filing a malpractice claim affect my future care?

    No one wants to feel like they’re "suing their doctor." But these cases aren’t about revenge — they’re about accountability and financial stability. You have the right to seek justice without fear of retaliation. We handle these cases discreetly and professionally, and we’re here to protect you — not create more stress. You deserve answers and closure, especially if your health was compromised by preventable mistakes.
