Portland Medical Malpractice Attorneys

Doctors, nurses and other health care providers save lives every day. But they are only human, and they do make mistakes. The National Academy of Sciences has estimated that approximately 98,000 people in the U.S. lose their lives every year due to medical mistakes. At our firm, our lawyers are committed to helping those people who have been injured or who have lost a loved one due to medical malpractice.

Medical malpractice is a form of negligence that involves a professional in the medical field. This may be a doctor, nurse, dentist, cosmetic surgeon, surgeon, anesthesiologist or psychiatrist. Deviating from the accepted standards of medical care or treatment, failing to provide a reasonable level of care, making a mistake or error, or committing a wrongdoing of some sort may all constitute medical malpractice, and this can occur during diagnosis, treatment, surgery, recovery or in the administering or prescribing of medicine.
