Minneapolis Medical Malpractice Lawyer / Attorney

At the Meshbesher Law Firm, our Minnesota medical malpractice lawyers provide compassionate, aggressive representation for people affected by doctor errors, nursing errors, medication errors, misdiagnosis, surgical mistakes, emergency room negligence, and other forms of medical negligence resulting in injury or  wrongful death. 

Medical Malpractice injuries or deaths are extremely traumatic for the injured patients and their families. It is unthinkable to most patients that their doctors or other health care providers could ever do them harm. Nevertheless, doctors and other healthcare providers, however well-intentioned, occasionally make mistakes.  They carry insurance for just such occurrences.

In order to bring a claim for medical malpractice in the state of Minnesota, it must be shown that the doctor or health care provider breached the normal standard of care in their treatment of the injured party and that the breach caused injury to the victim.  There is a four year statute of limitations for medical malpractice actions in Minnesota, but that deadline may be extended under certain limited circumstances.

Medical Malpractice injuries include a variety of issues including:

• The failure to diagnose an illness or condition or the misdiagnosis of an illness

• The incorrect prescription or administration of medication

• Anesthesia error

• Hospital-related infectious diseases

• Surgical errors or surgery without informed consent

• Surgery on the wrong part of the body

• Blood transfusion complications and contamination

• Nursing home abuse or neglect

• Wrongful Death

• Birth injuries

Medical Malpractice actions are extremely difficult to pursue.  The insurance company for the medical professional involved will almost never admit to any sort of wrongdoing, no matter how obvious the claim.  If you have been injured due to medical negligence you need a Meshbesher personal injury attorney on your side to protect your interests.
