A critical new study by the Institute of Medicine reports that the number of deaths attributable to malpractice in hospitals now doubles the number of deaths attributable to automobile accidents in this country. Whether the result of poor communication, understaffing, failure to adhere to mandatory policies and procedures, use of the wrong drugs or botched medical procedures, serious injuries and deaths attributable to malpractice are now a fact of everyday life.
The Firm has successfully handled many malpractice cases against hospitals, nursing homes, clinics, surgeons, physicians, anesthesiologists, certified respiratory nurse anesthetists, registered nurses, licensed practical nurses and others involved in the delivery of heath care.
Cunningham Bounds thoroughly evaluates the underlying merits of each medical malpractice case before filing a lawsuit. We will only proceed with a malpractice case if it is supported by highly qualified experts. We recognize that the defendants in these cases rely upon the substantial financial resources of their insurers who will aggressively defend cases even where there has been clear medical negligence. Despite the financial resources of the insurance companies supporting the defendants, we continue to achieve success at trial due to our commitment to justice and our clients.
