Medical Malpractice

Florida Medical Malpractice and Birth Injury Lawyers

Simply put, doctors and hospitals are supposed to make us feel better by putting us on a course of recovery following an injury or illness. When they fail in that obligation and you leave your doctor or the hospital in worse condition than when you first visited them, the law firm of Powell, Powell & Powell, P.A. Attorneys at Law in Crestview and Fort Walton Beach Florida can help you hold them accountable.

Powell, Powell & Powell, P.A. Attorneys at Law have represented clients in cases involving birth injuries, birth defects, brain injuries, spinal cord paralysis, obstetrical malpractice, surgical mistakes, pharmaceutical errors, and misdiagnosis of cancer or other deadly diseases. Whether you suffered a serious injury or you lost a loved one due to a doctor’s incompetence, we will strive to get the compensation you deserve and hold the medical professional you trusted responsible.

Medical experts are required in a medical malpractice case. To even proceed with the case, Florida law requires that you have a sworn opinion from a medical doctor stating that there was a breach in the standard of care. That expert will also testify as to what could have been done to prevent the injury. This expert must also be free of any conflicts of interest, as well as being completely unbiased in reviewing the case.

Injuries due to medical malpractice can cause physical injury and psychological trauma. When the bond of trust between a doctor and patient is broken due to incompetence or negligence, that physician must compensate the patient that they damaged both physically and mentally.
