| While many law firms represent victims of medical malpractice, few have been doing so for nearly 50 years. At Fine and Staud, we have been representing victims of medical negligence since 1958. We investigate every case and hire qualified experts to help us evaluate whether the doctors, hospitals or other medical professionals were negligent and did not provide the appropriate medical care. Medical malpractice, also called medical negligence, occurs when a doctor, nurse or other health care provider fails to diagnose or treat a medical condition in accordance with acceptable medical standards and the failure or lack of treatment causes an injury or injuries to a patient. Medical mistakes can happen in a hospital or in a doctor's office. These mistakes include misdiagnosing a patient, improperly treating a patient, prescribing the wrong medication, or giving the wrong dosage of medication, or failing to provide adequate nursing care, and mistreating infections. At Fine and Staud, we have handled a wide range of medical malpractice cases, including: |
Anesthesia Related Injuries
Birth Injuries
Dangerous Drugs/Pharmaceutical Claims
Dental MalpracticeFailure to Diagnose
Misdiagnoses of Medical Conditions
Negligent Treatment
Surgical Injuries
| Birth Injuries Birth injuries and birth defects can occur for many reasons, including mistakes and negligence by doctors and nurses. These injuries are among the most emotional and financially overwhelming of all medical malpractice claims.

| Failure to Diagnose Medical Diseases and Conditions The failure of a doctor to diagnose a medical disease or condition can cause the condition to worsen and significantly reduce the patient's chances of survival, resulting in unnecessary side effects or even death. It is medical malpractice when a doctor or nurse negligently fails to make a diagnosis, or fails to make an appropriate diagnosis. If you or a family member has suffered injuries because a doctor either failed to diagnose a medical disease or condition, or delayed in making the diagnosis, you may have a claim for medical malpractice and should contact the medical malpractice lawyers at Fine and Staud.

| Misdiagnoses of Medical Conditions Diseases and other medical conditions are not always easy to diagnose, and the failure to make a diagnosis, a delayed diagnosis, or the misdiagnosis, are common bases for medical malpractice cases. At Fine and Staud, we have represented patients and their families who have suffered or died when doctors negligently failed or delayed in making a misdiagnosis or misdiagnosed a patient's condition. Fine and Staud attorneys understand that these are among the most complex medical malpractice cases, and investigate these claims and work with qualified experts to prove how and why the doctors failed to treat patients properly. If you or a family member has suffered injuries because of an improper diagnosis, a misdiagnosis, or a delayed diagnosis, you should contact the medical malpractice lawyers at Fine and Staud.
