Surgery Malpractice

Wrongful Death Lawsuits

At my firm we handle a variety of Wrongful Death lawsuits.  Because we work on so many medical malpractice cases, most of the Wrongful Death suits we handle are also medical malpractice cases. 

Just yesterday, I had a client call us about a medical malpractice case, but she wanted to know if we also handle Wrongful Death cases.  Since many people have asked this question over the years, I thought now would be a good time to talk about what a Wrongful Death case is.

Common Surgery--Dangerous If Rules Not Followed

One of the most common surgeries performed in America is the removal of a woman’s uterus—an operation called a “hysterectomy”.  Tens of thousands of American women have this operation done every year.  Advances in medical equipment have made this operation much safer and easier on the women patients—when the new equipment is used correctly.

Gall bladder removal surgery—what surgeons call “cholecystectomy” is one of the top five most common surgeries performed in the United States.  These surgeries are typically performed by “general surgeons” who also perform a large variety of other surgeries.
