Medical Malpractice
Medical Malpractice
The negligence of doctors, nurses or other healthcare providers can potentially cause catastrophic injuries and death. If such preventable injuries or a wrongful death has occurred due to the negligence or malpractice of a medical provider , the law allows for compensation of the injured person or their survivors. The Zappitell Law Firm is experienced with these kinds of complicated cases, and understand how traumatic and difficult this process can be. Our team is here to advocate for your rights and receive proper compensation for your losses. When you seek treatment at a hospital or medical facility, you never expect to suffer more injuries at the hand of your doctor, nurse or other care provider. You trust your doctors. Medical negligence should not be tolerated. Let the Zappitell Law Firm help you protect your rights when you or your loved one has suffered life-changing injuries.
As a patient, you have a right to receive safe, ethical treatment from your physician and any other medical professional. When they ignore or break the rules, individuals are often left to deal with injuries that could have been prevented. (Florida Statutes 766.101-766.316)
For three decades, founder David J. Zappitell, along with our team at the Zappitell Law Firm, has vigorously defended the rights of our clients who suffered serious injuries as a result of medical professionals’ negligent, careless and unethical actions. Many of these injuries our clients sustain result from:
- Birth injuries
- Misdiagnosis
- Delayed diagnosis
- Wrong diagnosis
- Emergency room errors
- Infections
- Medications/prescription errors
- Surgical errors
- Delayed treatment
We realize that many of our clients, especially those who received misdiagnoses, are devastated by their injuries. Whether your child is suffering from a birth defect caused during labor, or you or your loved one is suffering as a result of a medical error, we want you to know that we are here for you.
Our primary goal is to ensure you receive the medical care you need and you deserve to make the fullest recovery possible. Our team will tirelessly work to hold the negligent medical professional responsible for their actions and maximize your recoveries.
While no amount of financial compensation can ever return your time or the quality of life that you lost, it can alleviate your medical bills and help you move forward with your life.
