West Sacramento, CA Medical Malpractice Lawyer - Hospital Negligence Attorneys

Have you or a loved one been seriously injured due to negligent care in a West Sacramento hospital? You may have a basis for a malpractice lawsuit and path to recovering compensation. The medical negligence lawyers of our firm have spent over 40 years securing justice and maximum damages for clients harmed by hospital errors nationwide. If substandard treatment during a procedure, surgery, child delivery or recovery stay led to devastating injuries for you or a family member, we provide compassionate yet aggressive legal representation.

Hospitals should be places of healing, but sometimes inadequate care and mistakes lead to further harm. When a facility breaches its duty of care through negligent actions – or lack of proper action – patients can experience life-altering damages. Hospital negligence may involve:

• Misdiagnosis due to inadequate testing
• Medication errors such as overdoses or administering the wrong drugs
• Surgical errors like operating on the wrong body part or leaving foreign objects inside patients
• Failure to recognize post-op infections
• Discharging patients prematurely before they are medically stable
• Unsanitary conditions causing further illness
• Poorly maintained medical equipment

Hospital infections alone kill nearly 100,000 Americans per year. Even basic sanitation standards are not met far too often.

If negligent hospital care directly results in catastrophic brain damage, spinal injury leaving the victim quadriplegic or paraplegic, wrongful death of a loved one or other serious harm, you need a lawyer exploring your right to significant compensation. That money can’t restore lost health or bring someone back, but it reduces financial stresses so you can focus on healing.

For four decades, the hospital negligence lawyers have helped injured victims and bereaved families in West Sacramento, Sacramento County and nationwide. We handle medical malpractice cases involving negligence leading to:

• Birth injuries like cerebral palsy, Erb’s or Klumpke’s palsy
• Surgical errors causing severe infections, organ damage or disfigurement
• Misdiagnosis of heart attacks, cancer and other life-threatening conditions
• Medication overdoses resulting in respiratory failure, organ shutdown
• Septic shock from unsanitary surgical equipment or post-op sites
• Failure to prevent patient falls leading to brain bleeds or paralysis

If you lost a loved one due to fatal mistakes during surgery, stroke misdiagnosis, prescription overdose or negligent intensive/emergency care at an area hospital, our lawyers can also pursue a wrongful death claim on your family’s behalf.

While no amount of money can make up for losing someone you love or living with a disabling injury, securing compensation can help pay for extensive medical bills, rehabilitation services, loss of income, special equipment and caretakers. We help clients focus on recovery rather than financial turmoil during an already devastating time.

Building a strong hospital negligence case requires in-depth investigation and often expert analysis. The key evidence we gather includes:

• Medical records showing what procedure/medication was performed and what symptoms presented afterwards
• Doctor/nurse notes indicating errors or oversights
• Statements from staff on what care was provided
• Photos/video of injuries caused by malpractice
• Independent analysis by 4+ medical experts in relevant fields
• Hospital processes/protocols vs. care actually given
• Equipment records revealing maintenance issues
• Prior negligence incidents and complaints about staff

Such evidence combined with our litigation experience builds robust cases proving inadequate care and hospital liability.

Here is what injured patients and grieving families can expect when working with our dedicated medical malpractice firm:

During an initial free consultation, we listen to your story, review what happened, determine if negligence led to injury or death and provide honest insight into your options. There are no obligations at this stage - we simply point you in the right direction.

If we take your case, we start gathering medical records, bills and other documentation to demonstrate a breach of duty. We also bring in independent medical experts to analyze records and provide testimony on negligence.

Prior to trial, we work to negotiate a fair settlement covering present and future medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering plus other damages. Over 90% of our cases settle out of court.

If a satisfactory settlement cannot be reached, we take your case to court where a judge or jury decides appropriate compensation. Our track record includes millions won for clients injured or killed by medical negligence.

At every stage, you deal directly with lawyers, not assistants or paralegals. We know this is likely the most traumatic situation you have ever faced. Our goal is to help restore stability and justice while you focus on healing with loved ones.
