Surgical error injury attorneys

Surgical error injury lawyers

Before a patient undergoes any surgical procedure, typically they are informed about any inherent risks that are associated with this particular surgical procedure. Virtually every surgery carries small risks of anesthesia reactions, cardiovascular complications, blood clots, infection, or/and healing complications. Yet patients who undergo these surgeries don’t typically anticipate errors in surgery. Such surgical patients rely on their reasonable belief that their surgeon and the medical team that perform the procedure are experienced, competent, as well as prudent enough to perform surgery without committing significant surgical errors. Unfortunately, this does not always turn out to be the case. Thousands of patients are injured every year by errors in surgery related to some form of medical negligence. Medical negligence, known also as medical malpractice, involves a medical professional's failure to exercise the skill, care, and prudence necessary for the avoidance of personal injuries or patient illness.

 

In each of the surgical error cases that we accept, our attorneys will advance all legal costs. There will be no attorney fees charged at all unless an acceptable recovery is obtained on our client’s behalf.



Surgical errors may include:


  • Poor pre-operative care and planning
  • Anesthesia errors
  • Prolonged surgery
  • Nerve damage
  • Lack of sterile equipment
  • Puncture or perforation of nearby organs
  • Surgery at wrong site
  • Surgical items left inside the body

 

All clients of Sexner & Associates LLC benefit from our reputation for being extremely well-prepared. Our medical malpractice attorneys prepare every case, at each stage of the case, as if it were certain to go to jury trial. Because insurance companies are aware of the quality of our past work, our readiness to go to trial, and our significant track record of successes, these companies are often willing to fairly negotiate and settle our cases on reasonable terms. As many of our clients would prefer to negotiate such a settlement, rather than wait for trial, the reputation we have earned with these companies can sometimes make a significant difference to the settlement amount. In other circumstances however, when a trial is preferred, the experienced personal injury attorneys of Mitchell S. Sexner & Associates LLC are, of course, ready to aggressively prosecute your surgical error case to achieve justice.
