Medical malpractice cases are often complex and involve numerous procedural matters. An insurance company that covers healthcare providers and medical facilities is always represented by aggressive and skilled legal teams who are motivated to pay as little as possible. This means that they will aggressively challenge a medical malpractice claim and may even engage in manipulative tactics to minimize your injuries, reduce your damages, or deny your claim.
Handling your medical malpractice case on your own can leave you vulnerable to any number of mistakes that can prevent a successful outcome. While you are not required by the law to hire an attorney to represent you, doing so can significantly increase your chances of recovering the fair compensation you deserve.
If you were the victim of medical malpractice, you are entitled to economic damages that can include:
You may also be entitled to non-economic damages, such as:
And other losses.
If you suffered injuries due to medical malpractice, you may be entitled to compensation. Unfortunately, medical professionals and hospitals often employ large legal teams that will go above and beyond to minimize a claim and avoid accepting liability. Because of this, you must seek legal representation from an experienced Bonita Springs medical malpractice lawyer at Parker Waichman LLP as soon as possible.
When you hire a medical malpractice attorney on our legal team, they can help by:
When you hire a medical malpractice lawyer at Parker Waichman LLP, they will conduct an in-depth investigation to determine if there is evidence of malpractice. They will also work tirelessly to identify all liable parties, to hold each party accountable for the harm you have suffered. Once your Bonita Springs medical malpractice attorney has identified all liable parties, they will notify each party of your intent to sue. After the notice is sent, you must wait ninety days before you can file your medical malpractice lawsuit, which will give the defendants time to conduct an investigation. During this time, the defendants can make settlement offers or requests to arbitrate or mediate the claim.

If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident or have been injured by another party in some other way, we are here to stand up for your rights. Our personal injury attorneys have been representing injury victims and their families in Long Island and throughout the nation since the early 1980s.
Examples of medical malpractice include:
Liability in medical malpractice cases is not limited to doctors. Liability can also extend to healthcare facilities, nurses, anesthesiologists, dentists, and other individuals who provide healthcare services.
Parties that can be held liable in medical malpractice cases include:
In Florida, there is a statute of limitations of two years from the date of discovery of the injury. This means that the individual will have two years from the day they first learned that malpractice may have occurred, to file a lawsuit. Because of this, it’s important to seek legal representation as soon as possible. Two years may seem like a long time, but obtaining legal representation immediately following the discovery of medical malpractice can give your attorney sufficient time to investigate your case. If you fail to file within the statute of limitations, your case may be dismissed and you will be unable to recover compensation. When you work with a medical malpractice lawyer at Parker Waichman LLP, they will handle every aspect of your case, including ensuring your lawsuit is filed on time.

I’m a 9/11 first responder, and I can honestly say that Parker Waichman made me feel like they had my best interest in my VCF case. Ms Candalino & Ms Viti are top notch in my book. I was constantly informed on the status of my case. I would definitely recommend Parker Waichman LLP to family and friends.
