Shrager & Sachs

If you or someone you love has suffered from an injury or condition that was caused by a medical professional or team of professionals, you may be able to take legal action. Contacting a Philadelphia medical malpractice lawyer as soon as possible after the incident occurred will ensure your rights are protected and may give you an opportunity to potentially receive compensation that can open doors to additional recovery and treatment options.

A lawyer from Shrager & Sachs may be able to file a medical malpractice claim on you and your family's behalf against the responsible doctor, nurse, technician, surgeon, anesthesiologist, or medical team that was responsible for the mistake or act of wrongdoing which resulted in harm. Medical professionals have a legal duty to act within specific standards of care. When these standards aren't upheld, those responsible can be held accountable for injuries that were caused.

By discussing your legal options and future with an experienced injury lawyer, you can protect your rights as well as other patients and their families who may become harmed in the same way. When hospitals and medical facilities understand that their mistakes have legal ramifications, they may act to swiftly remedy poor hiring, staffing, and training procedures and policies which may have fully or partially caused the incident of malpractice. An issue of hospital understaffing, for example, may be finally resolved when evidence is shown that it can lead to patient neglect.

Residents of Pennsylvania should be able to trust that their health and safety will be prioritized when they visit a hospital, clinic, or doctor's office. Filing a legal claim when preventable errors happen ensures our health and wellbeing are of the greatest importance to those in charge of our state's hospitals and the entire healthcare industry.
