Erie County Medical Malpractice Lawyers Fight for Victims’ Right to Full and Fair Compensation

Some of the most serious injuries that clients can suffer result from medical malpractice—or the provision of negligent medical treatment by a healthcare professional.  The practice of medicine at any level requires a great degree of skill and expertise, and when a healthcare professional fails to exercise the degree of skill necessary to provide the treatment required under the circumstances, the results can be life-shattering for the patient.  Although a simple “bad outcome” after you have obtained medical treatment in Erie County is insufficient to establish that the healthcare provider has committed actionable malpractice, when a doctor, nurse or hospital fails to act in accordance with established standards, you may be entitled to financial compensation for the harm that results.

Fighting for Victims of Medical Malpractice to Hold Negligent Healthcare Providers Accountable in Erie County, Pennsylvania

The vast majority of doctors and healthcare providers in Erie County take their responsibilities seriously and act in accordance with medically accepted standards to protect the safety of their patients.  These medically accepted standards are developed by the medical community itself and will vary depending upon a number of factors, including:

  • The treatment protocol or procedure involved,
  • The patient’s medical history and risk factors,
  • The patient’s age,
  • The geographic area.

Once we have uncovered the evidence necessary to show that a doctor or healthcare provider failed to adhere to the relevant standard of care, we will fight to recover compensation for all economic and non-economic damages suffered as a result of the malpractice, which includes both out-of-pocket expenses such as medical costs and intangible damages, including pain and suffering.

We will also work to recover punitive damages, which are designed to punish the healthcare provider for the harm caused by the malpractice, in order to hold that individual fully accountable for his or her actions.

About Erie County, PA

Erie County is located in Pennsylvania, but historically shared a culture that was very similar to New England culture because the majority of early Erie County residents migrated from New England and New York after the Revolutionary War.  Erie County is also one of the counties in Pennsylvania with the most significant land area located north of the 42nd parallel, making it one of the most northern points in the state.  Historically, Erie County was a part of the underground railroad that was used to help individuals escape slavery during the Civil War, both into Canada via Lake Erie and into neighboring New York.
