Understanding the Importance of Accountability
Medical Malpractice lawyer Charles Rock comes from a family of doctors and began his career working for a large medical malpractice defense firm. He quickly learned that not all patients receive the same level of care he was accustomed to seeing responsible doctors provide, and he became an advocate for injured patients.
There are several types of medical negligence that can cause serious, long-term injuries and even death. Among the most common are:
- Birth injuries
- Surgical errors
- Failure to diagnose
- Emergency room errors
- Patient falls
- Psychiatric ward supervision
- Dangerous drugs
- Chiropractic malpractice
If you believe you have suffered medical malpractice in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Kinston, Queens, Manhattan, Poughkeepsie, or anywhere in New York, it is important to contact a medical malpractice lawyer right away. Due to insurance companies' lobbying efforts, medical malpractice cases have a shorter statute of limitations under New York law, and before filing a case, you must obtain an expert opinion from a doctor in support of your claim.
Ready to Be Your Advocate in the Courtroom
In medical malpractice cases — even more so than in other personal injury cases — it is necessary to be prepared to go to trial. In order to settle a medical malpractice case, the insurance company will need to get the doctor's consent, which is usually very difficult.
The insurance industry has spent a lot of money trying to scare the public into believing that if medical malpractice victims are fairly compensated for the harm done to them, quality medical care will become less available and more expensive for everyone else.
If your case ends up going to trial, malpractice attorney Charles Rock is prepared to stand up in front of the jury and fight these misconceptions so you can get the fair verdict you deserve.
If you've been injured by a doctor or other medical provider in Bronx, Brooklyn, Kinston, Queens, Manhattan, or Poughkeepsie, New York, don't hesitate to contact our medical malpractice lawyer to discuss what we can do to help you pursue accountability and fair compensation.
