Medical Malpractice Attorney in Portland, OR

“FIRST, DO NO HARM . . .”

Medical errors injure and kill more patients than ever before. Preventable medical mistakes are the third-leading cause of death, behind heart disease and cancer. The most recent U.S. safety studies show that between 210,000 and 400,000 patients are killed in this country each year by preventable healthcare errors, and many more suffer non-fatal injuries.

When death or serious injury results from a healthcare provider’s failure to properly detect or treat a medical condition, you need an experienced medical malpractice attorney.

WHAT IF I SIGNED A CONSENT FORM?

Healthcare providers don’t have permission to commit malpractice just because a fine-print consent form was signed. Even if you were told about some risks and complications associated with your treatment, your healthcare provider must still meet minimum standards of care appropriate to your condition.

Medication errors; Hand-off errors; Surgical errors; Misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose cancer; Coma; Nerve damage or death due to anesthesia mistakes; Improper administration of prescription or non-prescription drugs; Improper use of a medical device or implant; Surgical procedures done without patient consent; Failure to order proper tests; Failure to consult with a specialist; Failure to properly monitor a patient; Injury to mother or child during a VBAC (“vaginal birth after C-Section”); Birth injury or birth trauma due to obstetrical, nursing, hospital or physician malpractice; Incorrect treatment of a diagnosed illness; Failure of Hospital staff to properly interpret doctors' notes on patient charts, Resulting in Incorrect Administration of Medications or Treatments.
