Chicago Medical Malpractice Attorneys
Lawyers Protecting Clients from Medical Negligence in Cook County, Illinois, and Across the Country
When you receive medical care from a clinic or hospital, you do so with the expectation that all reasonable measures are taken to ensure quality care. This is not always the case, however. Because of the growing number of retirees that need care, shortages of health care professionals and other factors, many facilities are understaffed and unable to provide the care patients deserve. If you or a loved one has suffered a serious injury due to the negligence of a health care provider, it is important to speak with an experienced medical malpractice lawyer, so you understand your rights and options.
Since 1997, Winters Salzetta O'Brien & Richardson, LLC has represented victims of medical malpractice in Chicago, throughout Illinois and across the nation. Our award-winning lawyers have in-depth knowledge of the complexities of such cases and what it takes to prove negligence on the part of a medical provider and/or facility. We work collaboratively on each case, putting our collective experience to work to explore every legal avenue to recovering full compensation. We provide personalized representation to our clients; our attorneys work directly on each case, and we stay in close contact with you, so you are always kept updated on the progress of your case.
We handle a wide range of medical malpractice cases, including but not limited to:
- Anesthesia Errors: Even a small error administering anesthesia can result in permanent injury or even death.
- Failure to Diagnose: Misdiagnoses, delays in diagnoses, and failure to diagnose serious conditions can cause deadly delays in treatment.
- Infant Injuries and Death: Childbirth injuries that lead to permanent injury and death are often the result of medical negligence.
