Medical Malpractice Lawyer in Lynden, WA

When a doctor's mistake turns your life upside down, you need someone who understands both the medical and legal sides of your case. Here in Lynden, Washington, we see how medical errors can shatter families' lives. At Moseley Collins Law, we've spent over four decades helping people just like you get back on their feet after medical negligence has caused them harm.

Think about this - you trust your doctor with your health, maybe even your life. When that trust is broken through careless mistakes or poor judgment, the results can be devastating. Here in Lynden and throughout Whatcom County, we've seen countless cases where a simple oversight led to serious harm.

Our community relies on several healthcare facilities. Here are some prominent healthcare facilities in the area:

• PeaceHealth St. Joseph Medical Center - the largest hospital serving our area
• North Cascade Family Physicians - a primary care facility many locals trust
• Family Care Network - Lynden Family Medicine - serving families throughout Lynden
• Unity Care NW - Ferndale - providing healthcare services to our neighbors

In our years of practice, we've handled just about every type of medical malpractice case you can imagine. Some of the most heartbreaking include:

• Surgeons operating on the wrong body part or leaving instruments inside patients
• Doctors missing obvious signs of cancer or heart disease
• Babies suffering brain damage during delivery
• Pharmacists mixing up medications or giving wrong doses
• Anesthesiologists making critical errors during surgery
• Emergency rooms sending home patients having heart attacks
• Preventable infections that spread through hospitals
• Doctors performing procedures without properly explaining the risks

Let's be real - medical errors are more common than most people think. Johns Hopkins Medicine found that medical mistakes kill more Americans than everything except heart disease and cancer. That's not just a statistic - those are real people, real families, whose lives changed forever because someone wasn't careful enough.

At Moseley Collins Law, we do things differently:

First, we sit down with you for a free talk about what happened. No fancy legal talk, just straight answers about your situation.

Then, if we take your case, we bring in not just one, but several medical experts. We want doctors from every relevant field looking at your records. A surgeon might spot something a family doctor missed, or a specialist might see a problem others overlooked.

We handle all the paperwork, all the phone calls, all the headaches. Your job is to focus on getting better - our job is everything else.

We serve victims throughout Whatcom County, including:

• Lynden
• Bellingham
• Ferndale
• Blaine
• Everson
• Nooksack
• Sumas
• Deming
• Maple Falls
• Birch Bay
• Sudden Valley

Washington state has specific laws about medical malpractice. We know these laws inside and out, and we use them to protect you:

• You have the right to see your medical records
• You have the right to seek compensation when you're hurt
• You have a limited time to file your claim
• You have the right to have a lawyer fight for you

If you think a doctor or hospital made a mistake:

1. Write down everything you remember about what happened
2. Get copies of all your medical records
3. Call us at 800-426-5546 for a free consultation
4. Don't wait - there are time limits on these cases

We can't give legal advice unless we represent you, but we can listen to your story and point you in the right direction. Even if we can't take your case, we'll try to help you find someone who can.

When doctors make mistakes, the costs add up fast:

• Medical bills that keep coming
• Lost wages when you can't work
• Future medical care you might need
• Physical therapy and rehabilitation
• Help with daily tasks you can't do anymore
• The pain and suffering you've endured

To win a medical malpractice case, we need to prove four things:

1. You were actually the doctor's patient
2. The doctor didn't do what a reasonable doctor would have done
3. That mistake caused you harm
4. You suffered real damages because of it

We work with experts who:

• Go through your records
• Point out exactly where things went wrong
• Explain complex medical issues in simple terms
• Stand up in court to support your case
