James Poe is a professional, knowledgeable and compassionate attorney with whom my questions and concerns were always answered completely and in a language with which I could relate. Mr. Poe is always available to talk with me by phone or in person, and his discussions with me are to the point and understandable for a person not well versed in the laws of Georgia. Mr. Poe has a friendly and experienced staff who make it comfortable for me to talk with them or with Mr. Poe. I recommend James Poe with the highest confidence and acceptance.

Mr. Chance really took the helm for me on this case when other lawyers wouldnt. He saw the potential. And he got results. I would have gotten nothing without him. Now I am set for life. He pulled no punches. Was honest the whole time. Good news and bad. No hype just good work.

I was fortunate to have Ms. Broome on my legal team when I went to court in a medical malpractice case. She was thorough in gathering all the facts, presented her part of the defence with confidence and helped me feel as relaxed as possible in a tough situation. I will always appreciate all she did for me and recommend her most highly.

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.

In May of 2018 I was involved in a car accident. I was rear ended and suffered back and shoulder pain. I hired Attorney Blake Fluevog to handle my case and I was very satisfied with the end results. Mr. Fluevog made the process very easy on me. I was sent frequent emails and received phone calls regarding any updates on my case. I highly recommend Attorney Fluevog if you are ever involved in an accident.

Mrs. Grant is a professional with high standards, moral conduct, and a person of integrity. With every experience I had with her, whether verbal or written, I was thoroughly satisfied with the manner in which she shared information. I was amazed at Mrs. Grant’s ability to retain volumes of legal research which were used strategically, allowing me to receive the most favorable outcome possible in my case. I would not hesitate to enlist Mrs. Grant’s services in the future and would consider it an honor to have her represent me.

Mrs. Dimitri was hired by our insurance company to represent us. I was fearful of an attorney not understanding our business and what we do everyday. This is absolutely not the case with her. Mrs. Dimitri brings a fine balance of empathy and aggressiveness to her job. Her meticulous attention to detail and fact is unparalleled. And I know her caseload is high, but she always makes time for me when I call or need to meet with her. Hiring an attorney to represent your company is scary. You don't know if they will put as much love and hard work towards it's success as you have but I can emphatically say Mrs. Dimitri does just that. Our case is not finished, but I know that she has done the absolute best job for us and recommend her highly.

Through many years of professional association, I became well acquainted with Noble Boykin. He enjoys the highest reputation in our profession. Approximately four years ago, I had the need of my own, personal attorney, and I was fortunate to be accepted as a client. My cases were very complicated and involoved a number of legal challenges, all of which Mr. Boykin addressed patiently, promptly, and competently. Litigaton was involved on a number of occasions; the results optained were extraordinary and totally satisfactory. During the course of his representation of me in these cases, I received totally unrelated personal injuries. Litigation was indicated and required. Once more, Noble Boykin provided me with the most excellent advice and representation, and I have recommended him to several close friends because of his professional ablility and compassion. He has earned the respect of his colleagues and peers, and his reputation within the entire legal community is unmatched. Noble deserves and possesses my total confidence; he is a very fine and highly professional advocate.

On top of exemplifying every rating attribute (trustworthiness, responsiveness, etc.), Mr. King is also an efficient and proactive attorney. I was charged with a misdemeanor possession of marijuana along with a failure to stop at a stop sign. Upon our initial consult, Mr. King was very understanding of the personal circumstances surrounding my case, and even went so far as to console me through such a low point in life. Within 24 hrs of establishing a rapport and hiring Mr. King, he called to inform me that he already started working on my case as soon as I left, and my charges may be reduced to a disorderly conduct if I agreed to either a 6 month probationary period or a 3 weekend stint in jail. During the time before the sentencing, I had called Nicholson Revell LLP several times with questions regarding the case, and each time Mr. King called back promptly with clear and concise answers. My case concluded with the 'failure to stop' thrown out, and conviction of disorderly conduct with a 6 month probationary period along with a 250$ fine. I highly recommend Mr. King based not only on the outcome of the case, but his professionalism and proactivity as well.

Nicholas is great. If you are looking for a lawyer who is on top of things, doesn't sugar coat, gives you updates within 24 hours, and just generally is a really competent attorney, then he's the one. I hired him for a divorce. One of the most stressful experiences that anyone could go through was made so much easier. I was given options, was told when I was about to commit a blunder, and was told up front about costs. Nothing was hidden. Thank you! I owe Nick my sanity right now.

Medical malpractice issues are complex and very intimidating for anyone who has lost a loved one due to infelicitous circumstances. When I initially brought my case to Frank Ilardi, he willingly listened to my story. After our discussion, he promised that he would do whatever was necessary to get to the bottom of this hardship. Frank eagerly followed through on that commitment.
Throughout the discovery and litigation process, Frank was persistent in keeping me informed with his legal teams' progress. He was readily available to answer any questions that I had. Frank was sensitive to the nature of the case and gave insightful information throughout the process.
Frank has gone above and beyond sifting through complex, medical records and information to methodically assemble a world class team to support this case.
If you are looking for a candid, astute, top-notch, medical malpractice attorney, I would strongly recommend Frank Ilardi.

Yes, we would recommend Mr. Edwards. He is an honest man which we thought impossible to find as a lawyer. He reviewed the facts in our case and was very supportive throughout the very long process before getting to trial. We endured great suffering after the accident and Mr. Edwards made certain we were compensated for what we experienced. We did not expect full compensation, however, after using another lawyer that just took our money, but did nothing to resolve our case, Mr. Edwards gave us hope and restored our respect for the legal profession. He is an amazing trial lawyer and very impressive in the courtroom. We have referred others to him since and for those who have had their cases resolved, they have expressed the same feelings. We are grateful to Mr. Edwards. Our family can now start to heal.

Arthur York Having you as my lawyer was such a comfort. You gave me the needed confidence to stay focused and positive. More importantly, you treated me as a friend and not a client. You did such a wonderful job in all aspects of the proceedings,And I believe if the justice system had more attorneys like you, there would be more success stories to talk about.

In this "Age of Communication" where responding is virtually impossible NOT to achieve, the Evans, Ga. branch of this Law Firm are professionals at being rude and condescending. It does not take 7 days to pick up a phone and return a phone call unless your building was demolished by a tornado. Professional courtesy, due diligence and good manners have not been displayed to (us). I have no doubt that others have had a better experience therefore I would have to say that prejudice falls into play here. To choose and select whom to help and dismiss others due to the size of the "purse" is immoral and unethical.

This is the second review I'm leaving with this law firm and it isn't different from the first. I had gotten into an accident because someone t boned my car last Oct. I immediately contacted Alex and his team and yet again they did everything they could for me and my case. They got me more than I was expecting to say the least. Everyone at the firm is friendly and professional, they are conernced with you not just your case, and I would be crazy to look elsewhere if I ever need help again. Thank you to Alex and all of his team for making this an easy and effective process, yall are the best!

Vickie Sadler is a Woman of Character and Integrity
Following an accident involving a SUV and 18 Wheel Dump Truck on an Interstate my husband and I were both simply glad to be alive. We were not interested in a settlement just our medical bills, item replacement and reimbursement for the expenses associated with the event to which we were traveling as I was driving a company vehicle. We felt that this was something we could handle ourselves with the two other insurance companies involved but after relentless and wise counsel from leaders in my company we sought out our own counsel.
We had no intention of receiving money we were not entitled to and Vickie Sadler assured us that she understood and would work at the highest level of integrity on our behalf. We closed our settlement in May with all of the appropriate funds being received, with clear consciences and an intense level of regard, trust and appreciation for Vickie Sadler.

I had a very unfortunate wrongfully accused case against me. The Carlton Sadler Law group provided excellent service, demonstrating professionalism and personal attention to all details in my case. In the end, attorney Vickie was able to get my case dismissed with nothing on my criminal record. I am very thankful for her services. I am a professional who takes pride in my reputation so it was very refreshing to have a good lawyer to keep my name clean. I would recommend anyone calling the Carlton Sadler Law Group if in need of attorney services.

Mr. Webb took on the medical malpractice case of my daughter. He walked me through the entire process. At no time did I ever feel like I was not in communication with him. He advised us regularly on what was going on in my daughters case. Negotiated a very satisfactory settlement for my child so that we could avoid the court system and the link they processed and that would’ve taken.
The amount of time, Mr. Webb put into my daughters case, totally set my mind at ease, interesting his expertise. I could have never navigated this process without his valuable experience.

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.
