Doctors and other medical professionals have a responsibility to uphold a standard of reasonable care. When they fail to do so, they can cause serious injuries and wrongful deaths. The families of the victims must then file lawsuits to recover money for medical bills, pain and suffering, loss of function, and other serious effects.

Medical malpractice cases can be very complicated and require the help of an experienced lawyer. Eric P. Finamore has more than 20 years of experience taking on thousands of personal injury cases on behalf of both plaintiffs and defendants.

What Is Medical Malpractice?

Physicians must practice with that degree of skill and care expected of all trained professionals. While they do not guarantee favorable outcomes to/their patients, they do owe patients treatment which conforms to the standard of reasonable care. If a patient's negative outcome is not just an unfortunate medical result, but is caused by a physician's negligence - his or her failure to provide reasonably expected care under the circumstances - the patient may wish to pursue a legal remedy.

We can guide you through the difficult process of determining whether an adverse medical outcome was caused by negligence and, if so, pursuing appropriate redress in court.

A few common examples of medical malpractice cases are as follows:

• Misdiagnosis
• Birth injury
• Medication errors
• Surgery mistakes
• Doctor errors
• Physician malpractice
• Nursing malpractice
• Hospital malpractice
• Nursing home malpractice
• Anesthesia malpractice
• Chiropractic malpractice

In one case handled by Eric Finamore, a little girl suffered brain damage as a result of a negligent technique during delivery. The oxygen deprivation to the brain caused cerebral palsy, a condition impairing her speech and language for the rest of her life. Mr. Finamore got the girl's family a structured settlement that will pay for her treatments for the rest of her life.
