Areas of Practice
- Birth injuries - Injuries that occur to babies before, during, and immediately following labor and delivery can have long-lasting impact on their physical and cognitive development. Our firm provides compassionate and effective legal help to parents who are caring for a brain-damaged or injured infant.
- Failure to do a c-section in a timely manner - Waiting too long to do a c-section can cause great harm to a fetus. It is the physician's responsibility to recognize when a c-section should be done.
- Births involving vacuum-assisted or forceps-assisted deliveries - Some difficult deliveries require the assistance of a delivery vacuum or forceps. In some unfortunate cases, the use of these devices can cause scarring, brain injuries and even paralysis of the fetus.
- Misdiagnosis or late diagnosis - The timely and correct diagnosis of a medical condition can save a person's life. When a disease or illness goes undetected or is misdiagnosed, the results can be fatal or have life-altering consequences.
- Failure to diagnose cancer - When diagnosed in a timely manner, the outlook for a cancer patient is generally positive. When cancer is undiagnosed, or diagnosed in its later stages, the prognosis is not nearly as promising.
- Failure to diagnose skin cancer - The late or misdiagnosis of skin cancer can greatly affect an individual's ability to seek treatment and make a full recovery.
- Blood clots - When not properly diagnosed and treated, blood clots can lead to serious medical conditions and even death.
- Emergency room malpractice - Our firm helps those who have been injured because of negligence on the part of emergency room staff.
- Surgical errors - If you or someone you love has been injured while in surgery or developed a post-surgical infection, our firm can help.
- Medication errors - Medication errors injure far too many people. A simple mistake such as an incorrect dose can lead to significant problems and injuries.
- Nursing errors - Nursing errors can include a nurse not following doctor's orders or not communicating a change in a patient's condition. Nursing mistakes, no matter how small, can have lasting effects on patients.
- Wrongful death - The wrongful death of a loved one is a tragedy no family should have to deal with. Our firm can discuss your options in pursuing a wrongful death claim.
- Cases against Kaiser Permanente - We have handled numerous cases against Kaiser Permanente and Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of Colorado.
