We believe that the vast majority of medical professionals are well-intentioned and work hard on behalf of patients.  However, mistakes unfortunately do happen. And when they do, it is the responsibility of the Doctor to ensure that these mistakes do not have consequences that make life difficult for the patient.

If you think you or a loved one is a victim of medical negligence, the first thing you should do is to contact our legal team. We will review your claim and provide a general idea of whether or not it makes sense to pursue. There is no fee for this initial consultation.

If the case makes sense to our team and if you agree, we will conduct an thorough investigation, arrange medical expert testimony, work with insurance companies while fight for your rights in court when necessary.  All the while, staying laser-focused on any opportunity to advance meaningful negotiations for settlement. 

There are several requirements that need to be met to qualify a medical malpractice claim. These include:

Having a doctor-patient relationship: It must be clear that you hired the Doctor and the Doctor accepted you as a patient. This isn’t as clear as it sounds where your main physician is not at fault, but a consulting physician is.

Medical negligence occurred: In this case, you must be able to demonstrate that the Doctor was not “reasonably skillful and careful.”

Doctor’s negligence caused the injury: it must be clear that the Doctor “more likely than not” caused the problem.

The injury led to damages: A patient must suffer from harm in order to sue. Types of harm include lost earning capacity, mental anguish, pain and medical bills.

We handle most nursing home abuse and neglect, employment, and malpractice claims on a contingent fee basis. This means that we usually advance the costs and expenses of the case. We obtain payment only at the end when the case is won or settled. You pay no fee upfront. You have no obligation to pay us unless and until you make a recovery.  

We will be glad to talk to you about the potential value of your case and how PLG may improve your chances of recovery.  Your odds are increased significantly by acting quickly.  Let us provide you with an early assessment as to the strength of your claim.  Doing so will likely maximize your recovery and minimize amounts owing in health insurance reimbursement.  

The victim does not suffer alone.  In many ways, the after-effects of negligence and abuse cases seriously impact family members equally.  We would be honored to play a role in helping you and your family in your own recovery as you strive to live your lives in the most meaningful way possible.
