Dedicated to Obtaining Justice for Victims of Medical Malpractice

The negligence of a medical professional or medical facility such as a hospital or clinic can result in serious injury or death. If you or someone close to you has suffered or died due to negligent medical care, we can help.

At Patton Law Practice, our experienced legal team can help determine whether or not a provider acted negligently, or outside the reasonable scope of practice. We handle all types of cases related to medical malpractice, such as surgical errors, misdiagnosis, emergency room omissions, and improper specialist referrals. We also focus on:

• Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities 
• Birthing Complications 
• Failure to Diagnose Cancer 
• Cerebral Hypoxia 
• Cerebral Palsy 
• Heart Arrhythmia / Rhythm Disorders 
• Heart Attack 
• Pregnancy Complications 
• Wrongful Death  

When pursuing a claim of medical malpractice, it is important to know all the ramifications of a provider's negligence. It is important to us to make sure we educate our clients regarding some of the more complex medical issues they are facing, so that they can fully understand the extent of their condition, or that of a loved one.

Because of our extensive experience with medical-legal issues, we can identify the likely outcome of a malpractice case more easily than some attorneys. We are frequently asked to provide information on medical negligence topics by members of the community, including the news media. Attorney David Patton is a frequent contributor to media coverage of medical malpractice issues; he recently worked with ABC 15 on news stories such as "Valley Fever" and "Dangerous Doctors."

When injury or wrongful death arises from medical provider's negligence, it is difficult to know where to turn. Please call us at 1.888.905.9208 to take the first step in the right direction.
