Claude Bosworth's legal mind has been an extremely useful tool to have on my side, on several occasions. My only hesitation in recommending him is I don't want him to become too busy to take my calls:)

Connie was incredibly kind and fair. She took my case even though it was not a high paying case and worked for me as if I was a high paying client. If you ever need a good lawyer to represent you in any board complaints I highly recommend Connie. I am very happy with the outcome.

I recently worked with Lee Ann Donaldson at the Nichols Law Group and I would recommend her to anyone needing this type of legal representation. She will aggressively pursue your claim to its fullest, while also treating you with great care and compassion. I honestly hope you never need her services, but if you do, call her right away. My only regret is that I waited a couple of weeks after my vehicle crash before contacting a lawyer. In hindsight I should have called & hired her immediately after. When you are injured and dealing with doctor appointment after appointment, the last thing you want to be doing is talking to any insurance reps. Just hire a professional right away. Lee Ann is the consummate professional in her field.

Our experience with Kevin was top notch. He took our case and negotiated a settlement in a timely manner. Our son, who he represented, will be compensated for the negligence of his school, resulting in traumatic injuries. As parents, we are the strongest advocates for our children. Kevin matched our passion and advocacy. Kevin has integrity, is knowledgeable and trustworthy.

After seeing personal injury commercials on TV, I decided to call one in my area. The downtown luxury office of Vick & Gutzler was my choice. I went in for a consultation, and they took my case immediately. I was badly injured and could not make ends meet but they assured me things would be okay. After the first meeting with Betty Gage, the companies owner, they had their receptionist tell me they couldn't prove negligence, so a jr. lawyer will help you file against workers comp !
I got roughly $5k for a lifetime of pain.

As I watched Dr. Andrew Baker (Chief Medical Examiner, Hennepin County) give his formidable testimony in the George Floyd case, it took me back to his steadfast testimony as an expert witness in our family's quest for TRUTH and JUSTICE for our matriarch.
The testimony and qualification of Dr. Baker and two other expert witnesses were unmatched and shown in our case long before his spotlight before the nation and world. All were found and picked by this experienced, professional, and skilled lawyer. Mr. Gutzler also was unmatched in our case.
The only problem for lawyers of this caliber...jury pools and panels. Ineptness and biases among jury pools and panels are serious things in the quest for justice. There is no tool(s) to measure those things in a courtroom. However, in spite of ineptitude and biases, TRUTH must be told and JUSTICE sought.
Thank you, again, to this experienced, professional, and skilled lawyer.
This public lauding is long overdue, although it has been done privately many times over.

If you are considering hiring Travis Mayor to represent you, do NOT hesitate! After two different attorneys told me there was no way to pursue a larger settlement than the measley one I was offered, Travis told me his plan to seek appropriate compensation for a colliision that took me months to recover from. And he delivered. The entire process with his firm was delightful - from his amazing team to his personal phone calls keeping me updated. I could not have asked for a better experience.

I contacted Rhett Fraser for consultation to better understand options for legal actions about a situation with a yoga teacher who is also was marriage and family therapist at a prominent Kundalini Yoga studio in Portland. She preyed on and groomed a family member in yoga class and then convinced him to become a therapy client and then sexually abused him. While Rhett explained that our family had no legal recourse against her, he provided sound advice and direction about how to report her to the licensing board for disciplinary action. Almost a year and a half later, the board voted to revoke her license and she later admitted to all the charges and surrendered her license. While this has been traumatic and devastating to our family, Rhett was compassionate and supportive about the situation and I really appreciate his service to the community. We need more people like Rhett that can help families and victims that are devastated by these terrible people who prey and sexually abuse vulnerable people. Thank you so much Rhett for you knowledge, compassion and support!

Rhett Fraser is personable, friendly, courteous and is very easy to communicate with. Rhett is absolutely professional in every aspect, and can be quite comfortable to visit with in a one on one setting. My particular case was unique and had been presented in court on previous occasions by other councilors without success. Rhett conferred with me in great length in regards to my situation, and assured me that he had extensive prior experience on this type of subject matter. Rhett applied his best effort toward my case only to learn it was more difficult than anticipated, but he persevered with positive results. Rhett was diligent in his communication with me, he himself was always quick to respond to all inquiries from me. Rhett kept me informed and updated too any pertinent information obtained to the case.
I cannot thank Rhett enough, for his exemplary effort and expertise demonstrated on my behalf. I strongly encourage anyone looking for success to confer with Mr. Rhett Fraser, I know you will enjoy your experience with his law office.

Be aware of not honest people, who will lie to you from the start. If you looking to be represented by a honest attorney this isn’t the one. Especially George MCcoy who lied to me about my case until I run out of money.

The website states his practice, but his assistant Lisa who says she's worked for him for 15 years says he doesn't handle a hospital negligence case. I'm baffled. No consultation - just "no". Usually attorneys ask their office assistants to intake info, then the attorney reviews and gives a response.She decides. And her decision is not according to what the website offers. Couldn't get a consultation to even ask for a referral.

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:
-

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?

Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement. -

- 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.
