A proven record of verdicts and settlements
A surgical error could give you grounds for a medical malpractice lawsuit if a reasonable surgeon would not have made the same error under similar circumstances. If you believe you have an injury or a loved one passed away due to a preventable surgical error in Seattle, please contact Paulson Coletti Trial Attorneys PC to request a free legal consultation. You may be eligible for financial restitution.
It is a physician’s duty to fully inform a patient of known potential complications, risks and drawbacks associated with an operation. A doctor must also inform the patient of its benefits, what might happen without the surgery and potential alternatives. What no patient should have to prepare for, however, is the possibility of a negligence-related error during the procedure.
Any surgical error could end in disaster. Surgery is already risky enough without medical mistakes compromising patient safety and health. If you suspect a medical professional of making an error that ultimately injured you or took the life of a loved one, contact our Seattle medical malpractice lawyers for a free consultation. We may be able to help you hold one or multiple defendants accountable.
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.
A minor surgical error does not exist. At Paulson Coletti Trial Attorneys PC, we believe all surgical mistakes are serious and should be treated as such. We have seen first-hand how dramatically a negligent error can affect a patient on the operating table. Injured patients may suffer serious injuries that impact them for life.
If during our investigation we find evidence that the surgeon or another health care provider involved in your care committed a tort that caused or contributed to your injury or illness, we can help you bring a claim to damages against the appropriate defendant. This could be an independent contractor, the hospital or surgical center, or a third party. We have the power to help you go up against any defendant in Seattle.
“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.”
No Fees Unless We Win
It is important to immediately protect yourself with a lawyer once you discover the possibility of a surgical error. Hospitals and surgical centers may refute liability for mistakes made in their operating rooms. Health care providers must take your claim seriously, however, if a lawyer is representing you. Maximize your chances of securing fair compensation for you or a loved one’s surgical error by hiring an attorney. Request a free consultation in Seattle with our lawyers today.
