Kentucky Anesthesia Error Lawyer

Medical errors are reportedly the third leading cause of death in the United States and the cause of many significant injuries to innocent patients. Anesthesia error is a common type of medical malpractice that can have serious consequences, sometimes resulting in permanent injuries or death. Unfortunately, it is believed that many anesthesia errors go unreported because patients and family members do not realize that injuries sustained during medical procedures were actually caused by anesthesia errors. Another reason these cases go unreported is that people simply do not think that they have the ability to take on medical professionals, medical institutions, and their insurance companies and lawyers.

In order to prove liability, it must be shown that the medical care and treatment received fell below the accepted medical standard of care. Our attorneys will use evidence uncovered during their investigation and medical expert testimony to show that anesthesia errors were committed. They will then show that the defendant was responsible for those errors.
