MEDICAL MALPRACTICE

RHS Outside Building
Every year thousands of people are killed, injured or disfigured by medical malpractice. While medicine is not an exact science, a patient is entitled to expect that they will be treated with a high degree of skill, and care, by physicians, therapists and nurses who are operating within recognized standards of practice. In a medical negligence case, to establish liability, and recover damages, you must prove that the professional breached the standard of care that others in the profession would employ in the same or similar circumstances. This often requires the use of an expert to testify what the appropriate standard was and how the doctor, therapist, nurse, etc, failed to do what they should have done under the circumstances. If you prove there is liability, you are entitled to damages.

The lawyers at Reynolds, Horne & Survant work on a contingency fee and takes a portion of the damages it recovers on behalf of a plaintiff. If you have no recovery, we receive no fee.
