After loosing our 5 week old son, we knew something had gone wrong. When we reached out to David and his team, it was of great relief that someone understood my concerns as a mother as I felt heard! David really went out of his way to help us in one of our biggest grieving moments. The hospital we had went to not only failed our son, but everyone who was there to support us along the way. I can not be more thankful with all the quick responses, the detailed emails, the overall compassion I felt along the way. We will forever be grateful to David & his team for bringing justice in honor of our son! Best decision by far, was allowing them to take our case!

Very committed crew! I quite advise to any federal worker. David could be very knowledgeable and helped me solve an employment difficulty which led to an outcome I couldn't have accomplished in any other case. I'm so glad I employed them to represent me!

California is a difficult state to be a medical malpractice plaintiff. You're going to need the best and in my opinion, you could do no better than David Smith. Ours was a complex case, one which other attorneys had rejected due to all the difficulties of prosecuting medical malpractice in California. Once Mr. Smith agreed to take our case, he was like a bulldog! We encountered some serious obstacles and were up against a heartless insurance company law firm that tried to play some ruthless games and (in my opinion) shady legal maneuvers. But Mr. Smith was ahead of them at every step, even as they seemed intent on taking the case to trial. Ultimately, they came to realize that we had a tenacious pro on our side, and they settled.
What I can tell you is that I'm not a big fan of attorneys in general, but we really felt like we had a powerful and effective ally in Mr. Smith. It turns out he's a helluva nice guy too!

They cover many aspects of the Law and have a very bright group of attorneys and paralegals and if for any reason, they don’t have the right attorney for the job they will at least give you three names that you can call, which can be very very helpful

I had a medical malpractice case with Martha Taylor. I was extremely pleased with her and her staff. Obviously if you are in need of an attorney in this area of law, something has gone terribly wrong. Our case involved a minor and Martha was very conservative in her spending on expert witnesses medical experts toxicologist etc. That approach gave more money to the client after all involved were paid. All lawsuits take time sometimes years and even though our case presented special challenges she persevered and continued to Persue the best possible outcome. I found her assistant to be quick with call backs and extremely helpful with the sometimes daunting and hard to understand paperwork. I hope this review has been helpful to anyone researching miss Taylor as a potential hire for your malpractice case.

I will forever be grateful for the opportunity of having Marti as our attorney. She is an excellent attorney, very knowledgeable and is not afraid to stand up for what is right. We had a very complex case that many lawyers turned us down not willing to help us. When Marti told us she would take our case it was such a relief to know someone who is confident & experienced enough to help us. I'm very pleased with the outcome of our experience with Marti & The Wilcoxen Law Firm. & feel truly blessed to have them on our side.

Unfortunately, it was determined that I wasn't geographically close enough to feasibly have my case represented by Ms. Zitano; however, the level of personal attention she showed to me, listening to my entire case with sincere patience and empathy, complete with professional insight and guidance was top notch and so appreciated. I honestly wish I was closer in proximity to have been able to have to Ms Zitano represent me, without any doubt.

The Smith and Zitano team were a Godsend. We had a tragic medical issue occur to our family. I had contacted numerous lawyers who basically had stated, our case would not have been economically feasible for them. However, from my first interaction with David and Elisa, I knew that they were not only experts in the field, but compassionate individuals. They had spent hours with my family and were the utmost prepared. It was such a relief to know we had them on our side. Even the other lawyers had mentioned how prepared and knowledgeable they were. In the end, we reached a decision that we were completely satisfied with. They treated us with great respect and helped us manage through these terrible times. I would recommend them 110%. They are the utmost professionals and I will be indebted to them forever.

Ted is an outstanding attorney. He and I had an outstanding working relationship. It was available at any time. At times we would meet on the weekends. He is fastidious. Was able to present my case with clarity and bring it to a favorable outcome.

I've had the pleasure of working with Ted for 10 years in a medical malpractice defense capacity. His inimitable attention to detail and his availability for time-sensitive matters never failed to provide great comfort for both my insurance carrier employer and its clients (medical professionals). From day-to-day issues requiring specific legal advice and analysis, to a very medically-complex jury trial in Sac. Superior Court (and the several years of representation and navigation that led up to it), Ted has proven time and again that he is worthy of mention with the very highest echelon of his peers in Northern California and beyond.

My case was satisfactorily resolved thanks to Mr. Meade’s expertise in the legal profession and his comprehensive understanding of medicine. As it turns out for me it was not the resolution of my case that ended up being the most valuable part of my experience. It was Mr. Mead’s genuine concern for my family and how the process was affecting our well being. He found the medical experts that ultimately made my medical situation one that I could manage. In the end I walked away seeing Mr. Mead as an attorney I hold in the highest regard and someone I now see as a friend.

I can’t say enough the gratitude and appreciation I have for Jonathan turner. I was dealing with a very complex case, and false accusations threatened my career I’ve held for the last 14 years. My entire future was in jeopardy. Mr. Turner worked hard, diligently, and aggressively to be on my side and fight for me. He was compassionate and brilliant in helping me through this difficult time. My case closed, and I got my career back. There isn’t anyone else I would want by my side, my highest recommendations and gratefulness go out to Mr.Turner. His prices are reasonable. His efforts yield highly favorable results. If there’s a way to help, he’ll find it.

I came to see Attorney Rana because I was scared, anxious, and worried. I can't thank him and his team enough for doing an awesome job in my case. Dealing with divorce is very stressful but attorney Rana gave me reassurance and peace of mind. He is very compassionate, but he is one tough lawyer and will fight for you. He is very professional, thorough and always available to answer any questions or concerns I may have. You are in good hands, the absolute best attorney in Sacramento!!!

John Demas and his team are remarkable and they are the kind of people you want in your corner.They are tenacious, unyielding, persistent and devoted to their clients. From my first meeting with John and his paralegal, Ariana, they showed compassion, integrity, and concern for my wellbeing. They did not “sugar coat” or mislead. They were upfront, clear and concise every step of the way. They didn't shoot for the quick and easy settlement, instead they took every necessary action to ensure I received they best possible outcome. I was kept up to date throughout the case and any questions I had were promptly and clearly responded to and answered. I cant thank them enough and can not recommend them highly enough. I am so grateful for their hard work and genuine care for myself and my case. If you need help after a personal injury, the John Demas should be your first call.

Mr Scharg signed a contract to represent me four months ago in a lawsuit. Four months went by and he did nothing on the case. Then he sent me a letter saying that he was not going to represent me in a lawsuit but he would only send a demand letter and negotiate if the person responded. Two weeks after the person did not respond Mr. Scharg sent me a closing the case letter. He is someone I would definitely not recommend. I feel he's only going to take cases where he thinks he can make the most money.

Our case was a travesty. Mr. Brelsford told us we were at third base with regards to settling. Then he did a 180, after we had met with all the attorneys involved. He told us we could not win, that no one would care there was an assault by a healthcare worker, that we had gone to too many physicians trying to get help for an undiagnosed spinal cord injury resulting in a permanent disability. He said we had to settle for what was offered by one physician. The settlement didn’t even cover the three years lost income. He claimed to have thousands of dollars invested in our case, but settled for a fraction of what he said would be offered.

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.
