Mundelein Medical Malpractice Attorneys

Experiencing a medical mistake can be a traumatic experience that can cause lasting physical harm. Doctors, nurses and others in the medical field have a duty to keep patients safe. When they breach that duty, they can be liable for your injuries. If you have suffered injuries due to the negligence of a medical professional in Mundelein, you have the option to pursue compensation through a medical malpractice lawsuit

What is Medical Malpractice?

Every year, doctors and emergency room staff make many different types of errors, ranging from surgical mistakes to misdiagnoses. Medical malpractice occurs when a negligent health care professional fails to meet the accepted reasonable standards of care, causing injuries to a patient. 

When you place your trust in a medical professional, you expect them to protect your health and wellbeing at all costs. An overworked pharmacist, a poorly trained nurse or a careless doctor — no matter the reason behind a medical mistake, there is no denying the harm it can cause to a person’s life. 

Injuries and deaths that result from medical malpractice are preventable. At Briskman Briskman & Greenberg, we believe that patients who have been injured due to a medical error deserve to recover compensation from the responsible party.

Types of Medical Malpractice Claims We Handle

The compassionate and skilled medical malpractice lawyers at Briskman Briskman & Greenberg have experience representing clients in a wide variety of cases. Here are some of the medical malpractice claims we handle:

Birth injuries
Surgical errors
Prescription mix-ups
• Diagnostic errors
• Emergency room mistakes
• Inadequate post-treatment care

Medical errors are not just limited to complex surgical procedures or treatments. They can also occur even in the most mundane circumstances.

For example, a pharmacist may confuse the names of two different drugs and give you the wrong prescription, leading to a harmful reaction. According to the Institute for Safe Medication Practices, choosing the wrong drug after entering the first few letters of the medication name and mishearing drug orders are among its 2019 list of top 10 most common pharmaceutical errors.

When filing a medical malpractice lawsuit in Mundelein, we will thoroughly investigate what happened. Our attorneys will use facts and details to build a solid case so that you get the compensation you deserve for your injuries.

What Compensation is Available?

When the carelessness of doctors, nurses, physician assistants or pharmacists results in injuries, you may be eligible to pursue damages through a medical malpractice lawsuit. Depending on the details of your case, you could recover the following types of compensation:

• Medical expenses
• Lost income
• Loss of life enjoyment
• Pain and suffering

In certain cases of egregious conduct, a court may decide to award punitive damages against the hospital or health care facility responsible for your injuries. If a medical error is fatal, the victim’s surviving family members may file a wrongful death lawsuit to obtain compensation.

Because there are strict time limits for bringing a claim in Illinois, it is important to talk to an experienced Mundelein medical malpractice lawyer as soon as possible. A patient typically has two years from the date they knew or should have known about the medical error in which to file a lawsuit.

What Should I Do if I Suffered a Medical Error?

Not all cases of medical malpractice are apparent. Sometimes patients may be unsure what caused their condition to worsen or why a certain injury occurred. Even if they suspect a medical error has taken place, it may be difficult getting answers from the hospital or medical professionals.

As a family-owned law firm, we understand how distressing it is to suspect you or a loved one has been injured because of a negligent medical professional’s error. Our experienced medical malpractice lawyers can help you determine if you have a case.

We are ready to stand up to doctors and medical facilities, no matter the size. You can rest assured that Briskman Briskman & Greenberg will fight for your rights and always act in your best interests.
