Medical Malpractice
Decades of experience pursuing accountability for negligent medical care.
A Record Of Success In Medical Malpractice Cases
It is the duty of doctors, hospitals and medical professionals to carefully and skillfully attend to your medical needs. If you have been injured because a medical professional was negligent, careless or failed to diagnose a serious condition, you have the legal right to pursue compensation and accountability for what you have endured.
You Don't Pay Unless We Win
We handle all medical malpractice cases on a contingency fee basis. This means that you do not pay us any attorney's fees unless we recover compensation for you. We also advance all costs of the litigation, so you don't have to worry about paying for experts or court fees out of pocket.
At Phillips Law, we have decades of experience in the area of medical malpractice, including with a defense firm. We understand the tactics used by these firms in fighting such cases. Our firm will always develop a strategic and customized attack to ensure that those who have harmed you are held accountable.
Attorney Paul G. Phillips has developed a deep knowledge of medical malpractice law, and is equipped with the resources and local connections to move your case along as efficiently as possible while working to deliver results. Our skills are demonstrated by the substantial number of successful verdicts and settlements we have won for our clients.
This implies that the doctor was negligent in some way, which means that he or she was not reasonably careful. In Georgia, a doctor is held to a standard of care that requires him or her to use a reasonable degree of care and skill. If a doctor fails to use that degree of care and skill, and you are injured as a result, you may have a claim for medical malpractice.
It's important to understand that a bad result does not necessarily mean that there was malpractice. Sometimes, despite the best efforts of the doctor, a patient does not get better or even gets worse. To prove malpractice, you must show that the doctor did something that a reasonable doctor would not have done, or failed to do something that a reasonable doctor would have done.
At Phillips Law, we have years of experience handling medical malpractice cases. We work with medical experts to review your records and determine if there was a deviation from the standard of care. If we believe you have a case, we will fight to get you the compensation you deserve.
