Cleveland Failure to Diagnose Attorney

How Can a Lawyer Help Me Find the Truth About a Medical Malpractice Injury?

Most people who are injured by doctors or hospitals want to know what happened to them. They want to understand how their trusted doctor could have made such a dangerous oversight. But when doctors know they've made a mistake, their insurance company's lawyers can work to make it impossible for patients to find out what really happened. At Spangenberg Shibley & Liber LLP, we're ready to help you find truth and justice after a medical malpractice injury. We come to you with the experience, skills and sophistication necessary to untangle the medical records and figure out whether medical malpractice—such as failure to diagnose a dangerous illness—caused your injury.

Proving Negligence from a Physician's Lack of Diagnosis

A bad medical result doesn’t always mean that medical malpractice or negligence occurred. Often, however, medical errors do occur with catastrophic results. Our Cleveland failure to diagnose attorneys know the difference and what you'll need to prove to win your case.

There are two important aspects to a medical malpractice case:

1. First, the medical provider must have violated the standard of care prevailing in his or her practice expertise—whether a doctor, surgeon, radiologist, dentist, or other practitioner.
2. Second, the violation of the standard of care—the negligence—must have caused the injury.

What it Takes to Win a Failure to Diagnose Case

At Spangenberg Shibley & Liber LLP, we know what it takes to win a medical malpractice lawsuit. Our attorneys have access to the most sophisticated technical and medical resources to investigate and prepare your case to win. Speaking with a Cleveland medical malpractice lawyer from our team could be one of the best decisions you make at this time.

We are highly selective in the types of medical negligence cases we bring to court. When opposing insurance attorneys see our name on the lawsuit, they know it is well conceived, carefully prepared and has the merit to be a successful court case. They know that they will face a jury unless they come prepared to discuss a full and fair settlement.

Jurors want to believe the best out of doctors, so there is a built-in prejudice against medical malpractice lawsuits. We work hard to show undeniable evidence that your personal injury or wrongful death claim is directly related to a doctor, nurse or other medical professional who failed to meet an expected level of care.
