Since then, we have built a strong reputation for helping individuals who have been wronged or hurt due to acts of negligence, carelessness, fraud or outright abuse. We have made the needs of our elderly population a specific focus of our practice.

We are available to handle all cases involving misdiagnosis of or failure to diagnose illness or injury, including:

  • Cancer (lung cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, skin cancer, colon cancer)
  • Heart conditions (cardiac arrest, heart attack)
  • Stroke
  • Broken bones
  • Pain

No matter what setting a failure to diagnose incident took place in, we can help. We can handle cases in which the medical professionals at a nursing home failed to diagnose the injury or illness of one of their residents. We can also handle cases in which an elderly person turned to a doctor and that doctor failed to take the proper measures to diagnose a serious injury or illness.

We are dedicated to the rights of seniors. All cases involving failure to diagnose are handled on a contingency basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we get results.

Our team has received much recognition for the committed representation we provide to our clients.
