My child was hit by a car while he was crossing the street in a school zone. The reckless driver’s insurance company completely denied my child’s serious injury motor vehicle accident claim, laying blame on my son. I brought the matter to Mr. Dow and he looked at it from an entirely different angle and articulated that position to the insurance company in undeniable terms. The insurance company buckled and paid nearly $100,000 even though they almost had me convinced my son was at fault when he was hit by a car. Mr. Dow’s firm was the difference in my son securing justice in his case and I recommend them highly. – T.A.

I was injured in a tractor-trailer wreck in Brunswick, Georgia while I was visiting from out of state. When I returned home to Florida, I called a large Florida law firm to try to handle my Glynn County, Georgia case. This was a mistake. The Florida attorneys could not get my case settled for a fair amount. Fortunately, the Florida firm contacted Mr. Dow to file a lawsuit on my behalf and he agreed to help. Once the case was filed and the trucking company started working against The Dow Firm, P.C., they saw what they were up against and started to talk about legitimate settlement numbers. In the end, Mr. Dow secured a litigated settlement for me which was double what I would have accepted. And it was way more than the Florida law firm had advised me to take. I am very thankful that J. got involved. He and his staff really took care in my representation and looked out for me. – L.P.

I suspected my husband died as a result of medical malpractice. I was referred to The Dow Firm, P.C. by another attorney who does not handle these types of wrongful death cases. Mr. Dow and his staff of experts (nurses and doctors) evaluated the situation and found that my husband had been victimized, but not as I originally suspected. The cause of my husband’s death was found in some obscure medical record entries which revealed an entirely different situation than the doctors had shared with me. Mr. Dow’s law firm’s investigative work was exceptional and I am so lucky I hired them. After we filed suit the doctor indicated he wanted to settle my case, but he and his insurance company tried to pay less than a reasonable amount. J. refused their offer and pressed on. Eventually, the other side caved in and paid what we demanded. I got unexpected answers and results in my case. Mr. Dow was passionate, assuring and firm the whole way. – L.H.

I was the victim in a severe rear end collision that left me with multiple injuries, including a concussion that made it difficult to manage my affairs. Tracey Dellacona handled every detail of my case with competence and class, keeping me apprised of every action she took. She was clearly looking out for my best interests and was assertive in dealing with the other drivers insurance company.

Tracey Dellacona was a bulldog for us. She immediately spoke up on our behalf when the situation called for it. She knew her business as well as our business. I felt that even though Tracey was a very busy business woman, she always made time to listen to us....especially me as I was very apprehensive. She was amazing! She appeared to be a southern lady but when she opened her mouth you never knew what was going to come out other than the truth and then the way she presented the truth was most impressive. I was grateful that she was my lawyer and not the lawyer up against us. I appreciated how she held nothing back. Tracey's personal appearance was most impressive as well. She was always dressed to the nines and carried herself with great confidence. I would never hesitate to contact her for legal assistance if the need came up in the future. She was most reassuring to us. My opinion of Tracey Dellacona is one of great esteem. She is a brilliant lady and knows the law inside and out.

Just want to say thanks to Mr Sam Crowe for representing me with my case. He has done an outstanding job. I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone!

06 Jul, 2015 by Kelly
My husband and I met Mr. Crowe a couple of years ago when my husband was involved in a hit and run accident on his Harley Davidson. Someone hit him and left him laying in the road. I contacted a random attorney that I googled in Conyers, GA where we live. I explained to him what had taken place and shared my concerns with him regarding all of the medical bills that we were facing and all of the Doctor's appointments and physical therapy appointments that we were looking at. From the very beginning, Mr. Crowe was helpful and walked us through everything that we were dealing with. He was so knowledgeable and agreed to meet with us immediately. He even drove out to our home. A lot of Attorneys are arrogant and are only interested in high dollar cases. I never got that feeling from Mr. Crowe. The name of the Law Office that he practices at is Tolliver and Gainer. They are located in old town Conyers. The entire staff has always been friendly and helpful. They make you feel like family right away. Mr. Crowe was able to obtain compensation for my husbands injury even though the person that hit him left the scene of the accident. Piggy backing on the review above, I have nothing but positive feedback for this Attorney and I will recommend his services to all of my family, friends and co-workers. Mr. Crowe is a family man and very involved in our community. He does not act like he is better then anyone and he is very dependable and knowledgeable. He maintained contact with us constantly and even gave us his personal cell phone number. My personal experience with Mr. Crowe and his firm is that he made me feel like our case was the most important case that he was handling at all times. I hope that this helps you to make a decision about who you would like to represent you or your loved one. I promise that you will not regret it.

I will be forever grateful to Bob Windholz for the professionalism and dedication he exhibited as my personal injury attorney. In addition to gaining a settlement for me in an extremely difficult case involving a surgeon who switched his medical opinion to my detriment, Bob stood by me on a personal level. There were times when I was so low that I almost gave up, but he encouraged me, always exercising utmost concern that I have faith in the process. More importantly, I could put my faith in him. If you require a personal injury attorney, trust me, you should call Bob Windholz. –Robin D, Tucker, GA

It was a pleasure to work with him and would highly recommend him.

Received notice from Atlanta lawyer regarding bogus mold claim; turned matter over to Jay to handle. He responded with strongly worded letter; also contacted our insurance carrier on our behalf; followed up with our tenant's legal dept. (one of their employees filed the claim). It has been over one year and we have not heard anything else from the Atlanta attorney. I am confident that Jay's original letter let him know that we were well represented and were not going to fall for his threatening tactics. Jay is rapidly gaining an excellent reputation in our community!

Audrey has been a tremendous help in giving advice on handling a case where my niece was involved. She wasn’t able to assist me with the case, but the way she listened with a caring ear made me wish she was able to. She was very patient and never made me feel as if she didn’t care. She put us in good hands with another lawyer and consistently checked on the status of how things were coming along with us.

Jim is a rare individual and lawyer. There are some hideously awful people in corporate healthcare who carry on as if they are doing God's work. They are bankrupting and killing us and "legitimate "law firms are covering it up. Jim sees right through it and knows who to go after and how to do it. . I spoke to so many "great" lawyers who were either afraid to get in the ring or they just didn't have the brain Jim has. He is a man of great integrity a trait which is increasingly rare among healthcare lawyers.

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.
