Every year, hundreds of thousands of people seek medical care to improve their health, only to experience medical negligence that derails it. Medical errors are the third leading cause of death in the United States. If you were hoping to heal but were harmed instead due to faulty care from a doctor, nurse, or medical facility, our skilled medical malpractice lawyers can help you recover.
When you place your care, or the care of those you love, in the hands of a doctor, nurse, and/or medical facility, you trust and hope that you will receive competent, quality treatment.
So, when something goes wrong, you need to understand why. It’s not until you have that understanding that you can determine how to set things right. If, in fact, the person or entity caring for you was negligent in any way, then you need to get yourself a good lawyer.
Selingo Guagliardo’s medical malpractice lawyers in Kingston, PA, will partner with you to make things right again.
Let’s say you’ve had a slip and fall in Kingston, PA. You go to see your doctor for broken bone treatment.
There is an accepted standard of care that the medical community itself defines, follows, and upholds. When that standard is not met, and medical workers instead cause harm or injury, then the person(s) issuing care are negligent. Negligence can happen at any point in the process, from diagnosis (or lack thereof) to treatment.
When negligence occurs and is documented, you can file suit for damages such as:
Pain and suffering (past and future)
Medical expenses (past, present, and future)
Wage loss
Loss of enjoyment of life and/or emotional distress
Loss of future earning capacity
Selingo Guagliardo’s medical malpractice lawyers will be next to you during this difficult time, always working hard to get you the compensation you deserve.
Call us to let us know what’s going on, and we will be your partners who can help you go forward with your life.
