Medical Malpractice Cases:
 |
|
A Patient goes to a doctor or
hospital to get better, not worse. the public is
entitled to quality medical care in a clean safe and
properly equipped facility. Such care is to be
provided by competent, well trained nurses and
doctors. These medical providers must give a level
of care that meets or exceeds the "Acceptable
Standard of Care" for similar facilities or doctors
in a similar community.
Unfortunately, some patients are made worse, not
better. Some are even killed. A recent study from a
respected medical journal indicates that tens of
thousands of patients die in American hospitals each
year due to medical negligence.
Doctors have lobbied the government and have forced
laws that make it difficult to successfully sue a
doctor or hospital. The lawyers at NK&P know thse
laws and know how to make a doctor or hospital pay
victims of malpractice.
The firm's lawyers have handled many cases through
the pre-suit screening process, through trial and
even appeal. We know the competent and respected
doctors who must testify in such cases. We in turn
are known by the doctors' and hospitals' insurance
companies.
