Medical Malpractice Attorneys
RisCassi and Davis, P.C., is widely known in Connecticut for handling medical malpractice claims. We receive many referrals of such claims from other attorneys.
Out CT malpractice lawyers review hundreds of medical malpractice claims each year. For several reasons, we scrutinize medical malpractice cases to make our best judgment as to which cases should be pursued. Such claims are often difficult and expensive claims to pursue. Furthermore, Connecticut law requires that an attorney, before filing suit, conduct a reasonable inquiry to determine whether there are grounds for a good faith belief that there has been negligence in the medical care. We take this obligation seriously and do our best to fairly assess the merits and prospects of each case, recognizing that the process is not an exact science.
While we cannot pursue all of the medical malpractice cases we review each year, medical malpractice claims form a substantial share of our cases. We have tried cases involving dozens of medical specialties including obstetrics, maternal-fetal medicine, pediatrics, emergency medicine, surgery, internal medicine, family medicine, oncology, urology, neurology, opthamology, and nursing home or hospital care. Through our years of practice, we have developed relationships with many physicians in Connecticut, as well as throughout the country, who may be willing to review potential medical malpractice cases and give us their honest opinion regarding the standard of care.
Our CT medical malpractice attorneys have handled a broad assortment of claims arising from injuries during medical procedures, some of which have involved claims of defective medical devices, defective prostheses, or dangerous medications as well as physician error. We are happy to evaluate a broad range of potential medical malpractice claims, including those arising from common procedures such as LASIK eye surgery, hip or knee replacements, as well as claims arising from rare procedures or complex medical conditions.
Medical Malpractice in Alternative Medicine
Practitioners of alternative medicine can also be liable for the harm caused by their negligence, although there may be issues in some cases regarding the manner of proof of a departure from the standard of care. Persons who feel that they have been seriously injured through the negligence or neglect of alternative medicine practitioners, natureopathic or homeopathic doctors, or chiropractors are encouraged to consult with an attorney. If the case involves a Connecticut practitioner, you may call us, RisCassi & Davis, P.C., at 860.522.1196 or contact us online, to discuss the matter.
