At Moseley Collins Law, we've walked alongside countless families through their medical malpractice cases, offering the kind of experienced guidance that comes from over 40 years of handling these sensitive matters.

In Heber and throughout Imperial County, these cases need special handling because of California's specific healthcare regulations.

The effects of medical errors can last a lifetime. Through our years of practice, we've helped many families deal with serious injuries caused by:

When doctors miss important signs of illness, patients lose precious time for treatment. We often see cases where:

• Doctors overlooked clear warning signs of serious conditions
• Cancer wasn't caught early enough because tests weren't ordered
• Emergency rooms sent home patients who needed immediate care
• Lab results were misread or ignored

Surgery always carries risks, but some injuries shouldn't happen:

• Operations performed on the wrong body part
• Medical tools left inside patients
• Infections from unclean surgical equipment
• Anesthesia errors
• Poor follow-up care after surgery

Getting the wrong medicine or wrong dose can be deadly:

• Prescribing medications that don't mix well together
• Giving too much or too little medicine
• Not checking patient allergies
• Mix-ups between similar-looking medications

Our community relies on several local hospitals and medical centers:
