The Fitch Law Firm LLC Works on a Contingency Fee Basis
Concern about how much it costs to sue someone does not have to prevent you from getting legal support for your medical malpractice case. Our law firm operates on a contingency basis, so we only receive compensation after recovering it for you.
If you do not get a settlement or verdict, you will not owe any legal fees.
A Trotwood Medical Negligence Lawyer Will Obtain an Affidavit of Merit
An Affidavit of Merit in medical malpractice cases is an official document prepared by a qualified medical professional that asserts:
- Your medical malpractice claim has merit.
- The medical care you received breached the acceptable standard of care.
- The breach directly caused you harm.
According to Ohio Revised Code Section 2323.451, this document is mandatory, so we will secure it for you and file it alongside your medical malpractice lawsuit. We will also take time to document the type of medical error that harmed you.
Types of Medical Malpractice Cases We Accept at The Fitch Law Firm LLC
Medical malpractice can include a wide range of claims. We offer a free consultation to understand the cause of your medical injury and the merits of your medical negligence claim. Accordingly, we accept the following cases:
- Birth injuries: We accept birth injury claims caused by improper treatment of the mother during pregnancy or errors made during the infant’s birth.
- Medication errors: These types of errors can occur in the doctor’s office or at the pharmacy. We pursue compensation for medication mix-ups, interactions, and dosing errors.
- Missed diagnosis: Failure to promptly diagnose your medical condition (or failure to diagnose it at all) could worsen your health or leave your condition untreatable.
- Surgical errors: We take on cases of wrong-site surgeries, left-behind instruments and objects, anesthesia errors, and post-surgery infections and complications.
Medical professionals and facilities we may pursue on your behalf include doctors, nurses, pharmacists, eye doctors, and other healthcare professionals. You may also have a claim against a hospital, lab, or medical equipment manufacturer.
