Medical Malpractice Lawyer in Fairfax, CAWhat Defines Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice isn't just about a bad outcome – it occurs when healthcare providers don't meet the basic standards of medical care that patients should expect. In Fairfax and throughout Marin County, we see cases where simple mistakes lead to serious consequences. These might be anything from a misread lab report to a surgical error that changes someone's life forever.

The Real Impact of Medical Errors

The effects of medical mistakes often go far beyond the immediate injury. Patients face mounting medical bills, lost work time, and sometimes permanent changes to their quality of life. We've worked with families dealing with:

Surgery Problems That Shouldn't Happen

Surgery mistakes can be devastating. We regularly see cases involving instruments left inside patients, operations performed on the wrong body part, and serious infections that develop after surgery because of poor care. These errors often mean more surgeries, longer recovery times, and sometimes permanent disability.

Missed or Wrong Diagnoses

When doctors miss important signs of illness or mistake one condition for another, the consequences can be severe. Cancer that's caught too late, heart attacks mistaken for indigestion, and stroke symptoms dismissed as migraines – these mistakes cost precious time and sometimes lives.

Medicine Mix-Ups

Medication errors happen more often than most people realize. Whether it's getting the wrong drug, the wrong dose, or medications that shouldn't be taken together, these mistakes can cause serious harm or even death.

Birth-Related Injuries

Nothing is more heartbreaking than when something goes wrong during childbirth. Brain damage from lack of oxygen, nerve injuries from difficult deliveries, and other birth trauma can affect a child's entire life – and their family's future.
