Medical Malpractice

Medical malpractice is an extremely complicated area of law. It raises many complex, intellectually difficult medical and legal issues. Due to the complexity and heavy reliance upon medical experts, the cost involved in bringing a successful medical malpractice suit is very high. At the law offices of Harry T. Widmann, PLC, we have the financial and human resources it takes to pursue success. We are also very selective about the cases we take. Insurance companies and defense attorneys know we would not take a case where there was not a probability of prevailing.

Contact our firm today to schedule your free initial consultation with attorney Harry T. Widmann regarding any of the following types of medical malpractice.

  • Surgical, hospital and nursing errors : Health care professionals of all types are responsible for following the standard of care. Medical malpractice can occur in surgeries, in hospitals, and because of an error made by a nurse.
  • Misinterpretation of medical imaging tests : Diagnostic tests such as X-rays, CT scans, nuclear medicine scans, MRI scans, and ultrasounds are used to detect a wide array of medical conditions. If a medical imagining test is read incorrectly, a patient can be given the wrong information regarding their health. This can result in serious illness or fatality.
  • Failure to treat : When a patient is diagnosed with an illness or disease in a timely manner, many treatment options exist. As a medical condition progresses, the options for treatment may dwindle, and the odds of recovering can decrease. If you have incurred medical bills from a doctor's failure to treat, or if your loved one died due to this type of medical malpractice, our firm can help.
  • Unnecessary surgery: An unnecessary surgery can result in many unnecessary problems for the patient and his or her family. If unnecessary surgery was performed on you or your loved one, talk to our lawyer.
