Knowledgeable Tennessee Legal Counsel
We trust our medical providers to help us get better, not leave us in a worse condition than when they started. Unfortunately, negligent acts in the medical profession do occur and the results can be catastrophic to the injured patient. At Thompson Law Group, PLLC, our Nashville medical malpractice attorneys hold negligent doctors accountable for their actions. We will work closely with you to determine how your injury has impacted your life so we can help maximize your compensation.
Helping With All Types of Medical Malpractice Claims
Our Tennessee personal injury lawyers have extensive experience handling all types of malpractice claims. Medical negligence can occur in a variety of different ways, including:
- Birth injuries
- Misdiagnosis
- Failure to diagnose
- Prescription errors
- Surgical errors
- Foreign objects left in the body
- Nursing error
- Nursing home negligence
Occasionally, a medical error may be fatal. We can help families file wrongful death claims for the loss of a loved one. Though no amount of compensation can fill the void that a death has created, we can help send a message that such grave errors will not be tolerated.
Doctors and Standards of Care
Medical negligence cases are complex and certain steps have to be followed before a suit can even be filed. A person cannot file a suit for medical malpractice until a doctor has reviewed the case and determined that the negligent doctor did not comply with the accepted standard of care. The reviewing doctor must either be from the state of Tennessee or from a state that shares a border with Tennessee.
The personal injury attorneys at Thompson Law Group, PLLC, can get a qualified doctor to review your claim. In addition, we will mount a thorough investigation of the accident to determine precisely what went wrong and which parties should be held accountable. This way, we can help you get full and fair compensation so you focus on recovering from your injuries and move forward with your life.
