A proven record of verdicts and settlements
As reported in the Diederich Healthcare 2018 Medical Malpractice Payout Analysis, medication errors accounted for five percent of the nearly $4 billion paid out for medical malpractice claims in the U.S. in 2017. If you have been injured because of a medication or prescription error, contact Paulson Coletti Trial Attorneys PC right away. We are dedicated legal advocates for victims of medical malpractice.
A medication error is a failure in the treatment process that causes harm to the patient or has the potential to cause harm. The World Health Organization (WHO) offers the following definition for a medication error: “Any preventable event that may cause or lead to inappropriate medication use or patient harm.”
At Paulson Coletti, “liberty and justice for all” is more than just a phrase – it is our mandate. Our team of trial lawyers is driven to pursue justice for the injured, ensuring that the responsible parties are held accountable. With a high success rate both in and out of the courtroom, you can trust our Oregon personal injury lawyers to be the legal advocates you need so your voice can be heard.
Medication errors can occur in several different ways, including:
“Most cases settle, but each of our cases is prepared as if it’s going to trial. The insurance companies know it and so do the defense lawyers defending them. That’s why we get such great results for our clients.”
Medication and prescription errors are a common type of medical malpractice. Anyone involved in prescribing or administering medications is potentially liable for errors. This may include:
Depending on the circumstances, medication and prescription errors can cause injuries ranging in severity from mild to life-threatening.

Our Oregon trial lawyers have the knowledge, skills, and resources to assist you in a medical malpractice claim for compensation.
