Need help with a malpractice issue?

Malpractice can occur in any licensed profession including doctors, dentists, nurses, therapists, lawyers and even architects. A malpractice attorney may represent either the professional providing the service or the person who has been harmed. If you've been harmed by the actions or negligence of a trusted professional, for example if a doctor performed an operation wrongly, then you should consult with a malpractice attorney. Professionals carry malpractice insurance and your attorney will negotiate with the insurer on your behalf or litigate in court. If you are a licensed professional a malpractice attorney will work to ensure your rights and livelihood is protected.
