When a trusted healthcare provider makes a serious mistake, it turns lives upside down. Here in Kentfield, California, we understand how overwhelming it feels to deal with injuries caused by medical errors. At Moseley Collins Law, we've spent over 40 years helping patients and families rebuild their lives after medical negligence. Our deep experience in medical malpractice law makes us well-equipped to handle even the most complex cases.

Medical malpractice happens when doctors, nurses, or other healthcare providers make preventable mistakes that harm patients. The law recognizes that while not every poor medical outcome qualifies as malpractice, healthcare providers must meet established standards of care. When they fall short and cause injury, patients have legal rights.

Some of the most common types of medical negligence we see include:

• Surgical mistakes like operating on the wrong body part or leaving instruments inside patients
• Missed or delayed diagnosis of serious conditions, especially cancer
• Medication errors involving wrong doses or medications
• Birth injuries affecting mothers and babies
• Problems with anesthesia administration
• Emergency room errors due to rushed or careless care
• Preventable infections from poor hospital sanitation
• Failure to properly explain risks and get patient consent

Our community relies on several major medical centers and hospitals:

• MarinHealth Medical Center provides comprehensive care including emergency services and specialized treatments. Their facility serves as the region's primary trauma center.
• Kaiser Permanente San Rafael Medical Center offers both inpatient and outpatient care through their integrated health system.
• Kentfield Hospital specializes in rehabilitation and recovery services for patients after serious illnesses or injuries.
• Marin General Hospital delivers a full range of medical services including cancer care, heart care, and women's health.

• Long-term disability requiring ongoing care and therapy
• Permanent nerve damage affecting mobility and sensation

• Spinal cord damage causing paralysis

• Death in the most serious cases
