Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Nationwide
Medical professionals are rightly held to a high standard of care, but the reality is that doctors, nurses and other healthcare providers sometimes fall short of these expectations.
The Philadelphia medical malpractice attorneys at Golomb & Honik have recovered millions of dollars in verdicts and settlements for our clients. We have decades of experience successfully representing medical malpractice victims in challenging hospitals, surgeons, nursing homes and other healthcare providers who were negligent in their responsibilities.
Common Medical Malpractice Areas
Medical malpractice can occur in any setting where a healthcare service is provided, from a doctor’s office to a hospital to a pharmacy to your own home. Medical malpractice can be caused by an equally broad range of negligent acts from anesthesia errors to prescription drug mistakes.
Our attorneys have an extensive background in medical malpractice, including cases related to:
- Birth injuries, such as cerebral palsy and shoulder dystocia
- Failure or delay in cancer diagnosis
- Surgical errors
- Anesthesia errors
- Emergency room failures
- Postoperative infections
- Nursing home neglect and abuse
Medical malpractice, of course, is not limited to these examples. If you believe you or a family member were harmed as a result of a healthcare provider’s negligence, a knowledgeable medical malpractice attorney can advise you on how to best proceed.
Legal Assistance for Medical Malpractice Victims
Medical malpractice cases can be especially complex, and because they are bound by varying statutes of limitations based on circumstances surrounding the negligence and the resulting harm it is advisable to consult with a medical malpractice attorney as soon as possible.
The Pennsylvania medical malpractice attorneys at Golomb & Honik will assess your situation to determine if you have a viable case. If so, we will work with you and begin gathering information to support your claim.
We have the know-how and resources to thoroughly investigate your claim, compile relevant medical records, and collaborate with the appropriate medical and technical experts to demonstrate that your injury was caused by a deviation from the accepted standards of care.
