Medical Claims

Cleveland Medical
Claims Attorney

Researchers identified medical errors as the third leading cause of death in the U.S. in a recent study. Doctors, hospitals, pharmacists, nursing homes, and other healthcare providers have a duty to meet certain standards in the quality of care they provide. When they fail in that duty and patients are injured as a result, it can give rise to medical claims for compensation.
