Medical Malpractice
Tens of thousands of people suffer injuries from medical malpractice each year in the U.S., but too few have a full understanding of their rights to compensation. You shouldn’t be left to suffer the consequences of medical negligence. You have legal options to assert your rights, and the lawyers of Goldenberg Heller & Antognoli will guide you.
Our law firm has represented clients in high profile and complex medical malpractice claims for more than 30 years. We are knowledgeable experts in how medical errors occur, and know how to assess damages, retain experts, prove negligence and help people reassemble their lives following their best possible recovery.
Our Approach to Medical Negligence Claims
Our attorneys have advocated for patients’ rights and deserved compensation in a range of medical error circumstances, including:
- Misdiagnosis
- Failure to diagnose
- Misreading of X-rays, CT scans, MRIs, etc.
- Blood work mistakes
- Prescription errors
- Poor supervision
- Inadequate training
- Emergency room errors
- Surgery mistakes
Every medical procedure assumes some amount of risk, but errors due to medical negligence may occur where you least suspect them. Outside of the operating room, preventable errors may occur due to the negligence of physicians, nurses, therapists, pharmacists and other health care professionals. Critical failures in fundamental parts of their jobs can cause devastating injuries to patients.
We’re confident advocating on your behalf in court, and will stand tall against the aggressive defense tactics of healthcare industry lawyers.
