If you believe your surgeon made a mistake and you are considering a lawsuit to recover your losses, speak with a knowledgeable Chicago surgical error attorney for help as you seek compensation.
Anyone who is undergoing surgery needs to have complete trust in the involved surgeons and medical team. When surgeons and other medical professionals make mistakes that cause you to suffer serious injuries, they should be held accountable for their errors and forced to cover the expenses and damages you suffered.
A Chicago surgical error lawyer at Lane Brown, LLC will be prepared to advocate for your right to compensation. We will examine the medical documentation at hand and conduct a thorough investigation to determine whether the actions of your surgical team were irresponsible or negligent in some way.
Surgical errors can happen for a number of reasons, including incompetence by the medical professionals performing your surgery, poor communication during your procedure, or even a surgeon being under the influence of drugs or alcohol. And no one can truly afford to endure the devastating effects of a surgery gone wrong.
These types of mistakes, of course, are different from a patient giving informed consent for standard risks that come with most types of surgical procedures. A surgical error that occurs due to the negligence of a medical professional is simply unacceptable and will warrant a medical malpractice claim.
Some types of surgical errors happen with alarming frequency, including completing an operation on the wrong part of the body, leaving a surgical instrument inside of a body cavity, anesthesia errors, nerve damage, and even performing an operation on the wrong patient.
If any type of surgical error has harmed you, speak with surgical error attorney in Chicago to determine whether you have grounds for a medical malpractice lawsuit.
Through your claim for compensation, we will work to ensure that the liable party covers every expense you have suffered. That way, you won’t have to deal with the consequences more than you already have.
Some of the most commonly sought damages in medical malpractice lawsuits involving surgery errors include the loss of enjoyment of life, additional medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages and damage to future earning potential, the loss of household services, emotional distress, the effects of disfigurement, and the loss of companionship and love.
Your surgical error lawyer in Chicago will take both your economic and non-economic damages into consideration when calculating the value of your claim. We’ll do everything possible to secure maximum compensation that will meet your needs.
