Mr. King and his staff were absolutely amazing. I was in a bad situation and he took my case with compassion and an astute knowledge of the legal system. While I was worried about navigating the system he made my case worry free. He is so kind and I feel all the stress I once had just gone. I can go and live my life and move my past far behind me. I would recommend him to anyone. Thank you Ian and staff.

There aren't enough words to express the gratitude I have for Dusti Harvey, Jennifer Foote and their staff.
The Harvey & Foote Law Firm pursued a case involving the wrongful death of my sister. Although there was no amount of money that could undo the suffering my sister endured prior to her death, the settlement we received was more than I could have hoped. With their help, I feel like I did right by my sister's memory.

The Harvey and Foote law firm settled a wrongful death case for our family involving a nursing home. The process was for me was hard to deal with due to the loss of our loved one. Dusty and her staff eased this by good communication, updates, several scheduled milestones were we had a chance to ask questions and were given the process and what the next phase would bring. As a team we would approach each step going forward. This case ended in a settlement but I had the confidence that if we were going to trial we would be fine, this helped in negotiation and peace of mind. I would recommend the Harvey and Foote law firm to anyone who needs help in this type of case and will say the entire staff was always curtious and professional everytime I reached out to them.

I’ve had a great experience with Mr. Ben Davis and his whole staff. They professionally handled my lawsuit in a very comfortable pace. I believe I got the best results in the midst of everything that was going on with my recovery. Also they did a great job at resolving things while I resided in another state. Things went so well I couldn’t ask for more. Everything you’ve done for me has been a blessing. Thanks a million!

My husband had a brain injury back in 2016. Before the injury he was a healthy ambitious person & our sole provider. He owned & ran a restaurant and catering business called Joe's Back N The Day. In October 2016 he had a surgery that he & I will forever regret him having! He is now 100% disabled..bedridden & wheelchair bound. We lost everything.. the business, our travel trailer and truck was repossessed but more importantly I lost my healthy husband! I now am his caregiver and will be for the rest of our lives. My husband & I reached out to several attorneys to no avail. I personally had given up. A few months before the statue of limitations was about to run out my husband called the law office of James Wood Law. I'll never forget my husband handing me the phone & telling me to talk again with another lawyer about what happened to him. I was irritated and didn't want to have to relive the story again. It was always emotionally exhausting for me but I got up & dusted myself off and relived the part in our lives I wished never happened. I can't recall exactly who I spoke to but she was very attentive & said she would give the attorney all my information and someone may call me back. I got a call back from Arslan Umarov. I am overwhelmed with joy from what Arslan, Jim & all the attorneys at James Wood Law has done for my family!!! There really is no words!!! I believe God sent them into our lives give us justice for what happened to my husband!!! We didn't have to go to trial. I can't thank them enough!!!! I highly recommend the Law offices of James Wood Law & Arslan Umarov!!! Thank you & may God bless you all.
Sincerely The Yscos

Daymon Ely is one of the good guys. In a world where being litigious is kind of like the old west, the guys in white hats really do make a difference.
Daymon is conscientious and connected. He has been practicing law for many years, and understands the right way to go about doing things. He helped my family at a time when we needed it, and he did so with intelligence and courtesy.
Whether you need results or whether you just need advice, Daymon would be someone to talk to about legal malpractice or personal injury.
If you're not the right client for him, then he'll probably refer you to someone who is. And if your case had no merit, then he would tell you that too. That is one of the hallmarks of the best attorneys.

I had the opportunity to meet and discuss a very sensitive case years ago with Mr. Eli.
He was compassionate, professional and honest. I decided at that time I was not well enough to proceed. He was gracious and wished me well.
Now, 8 years later unfortunately I have sustained another harm and he is the only one I trust.
This statement says everything about this man and his values. Trust me my husband is a lawyer I have plenty to choose from.

Robyn Dixon was the best decision I made when it came to my accident attorney. From the moment I reached out to her from the hospital bed to the moment of claim agreement. She never backed down from the other insurance adjusters low ball offers and fought very hard to get the money I deserved on everything possible. She got me 3 times the amount I was even thinking I would. She stayed in constant contact and updates throughout this almost 18 month process. Yes that seems like some time but there was also 8 other cars involved in this accident of which I was the first car hit being rear ended by not 1 but 2 vehicles at the same time. She had to put up a fight by herself against two other insurance attorneys and yes Robyn Dixon proved the other two drivers where at fault. I can’t thank her enough. She comes highly recommended.!! Thank you so much for fighting for me.

I highly recommend Patrick Kelley Family Law to anyone going through family legal matters. I called and spoke to his paralegal who was very friendly on the phone and pointed me in the right direction. I made an appointment with Patrick and he was very professional and caring. I never felt like I was just one of his clients but a real person going through a real event in my life that mattered to him as well. I was in a child custody case and he was very organized in getting all documents together and creating a great case for me. I personally had an out of state case and everything was done over the phone and email. Anytime I had a question or concern he was always available to speak to me or called me back within the same day. When going to court he knew all the right questions to ask and was prepared for the trial with no surprises. I feel like he was not only my lawyer but a part of my family. He always had a personal touch to our conversations to ask how everyone in the family was doing and was honest and true. If you need an attorney who cares for your matter and not just your money, I would highly highly recommend Patrick Kelley!!

I believe that the office is closed for COVID-19 safety and they are conducting all their business telephonically or video-call. Regardless, the staff I spoke with, were incredibly kind and understanding and Mr. Kelley was forthright, seemed knowledgeable (I don't have experience to gauge for certain) and generous.

I can't say enough about Allegra Carpenter. Although nothing can bring my sister back, Allegra - following the worst tragedy our family could have experienced - brought justice for us. Allegra was willing to take on our case, which other lawyers had rejected due to its challenges, and championed my sister's cause against multiple powerful entities and individuals. Allegra always believed in us and went the extra mile to explore every legal and factual avenue to success. She believes strongly about changing bad and dangerous practices to make the world a safer and better place for everyone. She is a true warrior.

I have had Barbara Arbuckle represent me on three separate legal matters over the last 17 years. The most complex case of the three was my divorce, which my now ex-husband involved our children in a felony, his refusal to manage our daughters chronic medical condition which resulted in her having a life-threatening emergency, his continued threats against my life, and his refusal to separate marital assets. Mrs. Arbuckle immediately address each issue as it arose, ensuring the safety of our children and myself throughout the time this case was active. She continually educated me on how each issue would be handled, the need for ancillary involvement (Children Protective Services) and obtained a restraining order for my safety.
With each new obstacle thrown at us by my ex-husband and his legal team, she overcame their disputes and often turned them into an advantage for me. She was able to prove to the courts what was true and false, exposing the many lies and deceptions given by my ex-husband. Her tireless work and dedication to my family speaks for itself. I could only presume that anything negative said against Mrs. Arbuckle would have to come from someone she opposed in court and beat, not from the person she represents.

What a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Can Do for You
A medical malpractice lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been harmed due to the negligence or misconduct of healthcare professionals, such as doctors, nurses, or hospitals. These lawyers assist in cases where a healthcare provider deviates from the accepted standard of care, resulting in injury or death. Medical malpractice cases can involve misdiagnosis, surgical errors, medication mistakes, birth injuries, and other forms of medical negligence.
If you or a loved one has suffered harm due to improper medical treatment, a medical malpractice lawyer can help you understand your legal options, file a lawsuit, and pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, and other damages.
When Should I Hire a Medical Malpractice Lawyer?
Hiring a medical malpractice lawyer is essential if you’ve been seriously injured due to the negligence of a healthcare provider or institution. Situations where you should seek legal representation include:
- Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis: If a doctor fails to diagnose or delays diagnosing a medical condition, leading to harm or progression of the illness.
- Surgical errors: Harm resulting from surgical mistakes such as operating on the wrong site, leaving instruments inside the body, or performing unnecessary procedures.
- Medication errors: Injuries caused by prescribing the wrong medication or dosage, or mistakes made by pharmacists in dispensing drugs.
- Birth injuries: Injuries to a newborn due to medical negligence during labor and delivery, such as failing to perform a timely C-section or improper use of delivery instruments.
- Anesthesia errors: Complications arising from improperly administered anesthesia, which can lead to serious injury or death.
- Inadequate follow-up or aftercare: Suffering due to lack of proper monitoring or care after a medical procedure, leading to complications.
- Hospital or nursing home negligence: Harm caused by the negligence of hospital staff, nurses, or administrators who failed to provide adequate care.
Medical malpractice cases are complex, and hiring a lawyer early can help ensure your rights are protected and your case is handled effectively.
What Does a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Do?
A medical malpractice lawyer provides various legal services to help injured patients hold negligent healthcare providers accountable. Their responsibilities include:
- Evaluating your case: Reviewing medical records and consulting with experts to determine if you have a viable claim based on the standard of care and harm suffered.
- Filing a lawsuit: Initiating legal action by filing a complaint against the responsible parties in the appropriate court.
- Gathering evidence: Collecting medical records, expert testimonies, and other relevant evidence to build a strong case.
- Negotiating with insurance companies: Working to secure a fair settlement that compensates you for your injuries without the need for a trial.
- Litigating in court: Representing you during trial proceedings if a settlement cannot be reached, presenting evidence and arguing your case.
- Calculating damages: Assessing the full extent of your losses, including medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and future care needs.
- Handling expert testimony: Coordinating with medical experts who can testify on how the standard of care was breached and how it led to your injuries.
How Are Medical Malpractice Lawyers Paid?
Most medical malpractice lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, which means they only get paid if they recover compensation for you. Key aspects of this payment structure include:
- Contingency fee percentage: The lawyer's fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the settlement or award.
- No upfront costs: You do not pay any legal fees unless the lawyer successfully recovers compensation on your behalf.
- Case expenses: Costs for expert witnesses, medical record retrieval, and court fees may be deducted from your settlement or award in addition to the lawyer's fee.
Always discuss the fee arrangement during your initial consultation to understand your financial obligations.
How Much Does a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a medical malpractice lawyer is usually based on a contingency fee model. General estimates include:
- Contingency fee: Lawyers typically charge between 25% and 40% of the total recovery amount.
- Case expenses: Additional costs such as expert witness fees and court expenses can range from $5,000 to $50,000 or more, depending on the case complexity.
Ensure you receive a clear explanation of all potential fees and expenses before proceeding with your case.
Top Questions to Ask a Medical Malpractice Lawyer
Before hiring a medical malpractice lawyer, consider asking the following questions:
-
What experience do you have with medical malpractice cases like mine?
Confirm the lawyer has a successful track record with similar cases. -
How do you charge for your services?
Understand the contingency fee percentage and any additional costs you may incur. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Seek an honest assessment of your case's strengths and potential challenges. -
How long will the process take?
Get an estimate of the timeline for settling or taking the case to trial. -
Will you handle my case personally?
Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement. -
Have you worked with expert witnesses?
Verify the lawyer's experience in collaborating with medical experts essential for your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Medical Malpractice Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable lawyer, take the following steps:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association for their license and any disciplinary actions.
- Review their experience: Look for specialization in medical malpractice and a history of successful cases.
- Read client reviews: Consult platforms like Avvo or Martindale-Hubbell for testimonials and ratings.
- Ask for references: Request contact information of previous clients willing to discuss their experience.
- Check professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) indicates a commitment to the field.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To maximize the effectiveness of your initial meeting, bring the following:
- Medical records: All documents related to your treatment and injury.
- Evidence of harm: Photos, medical bills, and records of lost wages.
- Communication records: Any correspondence with healthcare providers or institutions.
- List of healthcare providers: Names and contact information of all involved medical personnel.
- Questions for the lawyer: A prepared list to address all your concerns.
- Timeline of events: A detailed chronology of your medical care and the issues encountered.
Being well-prepared helps the lawyer assess your case accurately and advise you on the best course of action.
