Medical Malpractice

Cleveland and Columbus, Ohio, medical malpractice, wrongful death, and personal injury attorneys and lawyers dedicated to vigorously representing the injured.

Many  believe  that  malpractice  always  involves  a  physician,   and  it frequently does.   However,  malpractice can also  be caused by others. Health care providers, including nurses, dentists, and others, can commit malpractice.    And  so  can  other   professionals,    including   lawyers, accountants,  architects,  engineers,  and  surveyors.

Malpractice is caused by health care providers when they fail to follow a "standard of care,"  and  that  failure  proximately  causes  an  injury  to a patient.  Other professionals,  such as attorneys,  accountants, architects, engineers  and  surveyors, commit  malpractice when  their  conduct falls below  that  degree  of  skill  ordinarily exercised  by  those  in  their profession.

All  malpractice  cases  are  complex.   All are governed  by a very strict statute of  limitations -- some  can initially be as short as one  year.   Because  malpractice cases are complex, and because different standards apply to different professions  and different  limitation periods govern when lawsuits must be filed,  it is imperative that  you seek help as  soon  as you believe  you have been injured.

We are experienced, and we can help. (See Verdicts & Settlements)
