Raleigh Medical Malpractice Attorney
North Carolina Medical Malpractice and Doctor Negligence Representation
At the Law Office of Charles M. Putterman, in Raleigh, North Carolina, I provide quality legal representation to clients who have suffered serious injuries or illnesses as a result of a doctor's or nurse's negligence. If you have suffered an injury caused by medical treatment that did not conform to the appropriate standard of care, get in touch with my law office for a free consultation. I will speak with you candidly concerning the circumstances of your case, the chances of recovery, the types of compensation to which you may be entitled, and the best course of action for you.
It is not always wise to file a medical malpractice lawsuit or take a previously filed case to trial. Medical malpractice cases are typically tremendously expensive to pursue. Out-of-pocket expenses are rarely less than $50,000 and are often more than $100,000. What this means is that unless the injury is extremely serious or catastrophic in nature, the jury's award might not cover the cost of litigation. To learn more about how I can help you negotiation a medical malpractice settlement or litigate a medical malpractice claim, contact my office to schedule a consultation.
Medical malpractice can include:
- Surgical error
- Hospital negligence
- Emergency room error
- Misdiagnosis
- Failure to diagnose a chronic condition
- Failure to diagnose cancer
- Medication errors
- Birth injuries
- Failure to properly treat a medical condition
- Chronic pain or disability caused by negligent medical treatment or a negligently performed medical procedure
I also handle dental malpractice claims involving chronic pain, including cases of negligently performed bite adjustments.
Experienced Medical Malpractice Attorney
As an experienced and skilled medical malpractice attorney, I perform a complete investigation into all medical negligence claims. When necessary, I hire medical experts to review medical records and provide expert testimony at trial. I prepare each case to go to trial, but will not go to trial if the best course of action is to pursue a negotiated settlement with the health care provider, the insurance company, or both.
