Moseley Collins Law follows a detailed process when investigating medical negligence cases to build the strongest argument on the victim’s behalf:

1. Order Complete Medical Records - We collect a victim’s full medical charts, billing records, radiology images and more spanning before, during and after the incident.
2. Have Medical Experts Review - We retain a team of medical specialists to thoroughly review the records along a clearly defined timeline and identify any breaches in standards of care. Each expert must meet our strict criteria regarding credentials, experience and independence.
3. Send Statutory Notices - Before filing a lawsuit, we send notices to all involved healthcare providers and facilities informing them formal legal action may ensue within 90 days, as required by California law.
4. Attempt Settlement Negotiations - We make good faith attempts to settle cases before going to court, to avoid drawn-out litigation. However, we are fully prepared to file a lawsuit if fair compensation is not offered.
5. File Lawsuit & Litigate the Case - With an ironclad argument regarding negligence, our lawyers aggressively litigate cases in Orange County courts with the goal of recovering a substantial financial award. This may involve deposing doctors and expert witnesses.

If monetary damages are awarded by a judge or jury at conclusion of a trial, or a settlement is reached beforehand, the funds must by law first pay back any medical liens attached to the case. Remaining proceeds go toward the victim’s ongoing medical bills, rehabilitation costs, loss of income, pain and suffering, and other present and future expenses steming from the malpractice.
