When you seek medical care, you put your trust in doctors, nurses, and hospitals to protect your health. Most of the time, that trust is honored. 

But when medical professionals make mistakes, the consequences can be life-changing – or even life-threatening. 

At Piazza Law, we’ve seen firsthand how medical negligence can devastate patients and their families. That’s why we fight tirelessly to hold healthcare providers accountable and secure justice for those harmed.

What Counts as Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare professional fails to provide the standard of care that another reasonably skilled provider would have delivered under similar circumstances. Some of the most common examples include:

  • Surgical errors such as operating on the wrong site or leaving instruments inside the body.
  • Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis that allows an illness to progress unchecked.
  • Medication mistakes, including wrong prescriptions or dangerous drug interactions.
  • Birth injuries caused by negligence during labor and delivery.
  • Hospital negligence, from unsanitary conditions to inadequate staffing.

Each case is different, but the impact is the same: families left facing mounting medical bills, lost income, and the uncertainty of an altered future.

Why Experience Matters

Medical malpractice cases are some of the most complex in personal injury law. Hospitals and insurance companies have deep pockets and aggressive legal teams. You need attorneys who not only understand the law but also know how to stand up to powerful institutions.

At Piazza Law, we bring more than 85 years of combined experience to every case. We work with medical experts to uncover the truth, build the strongest claim possible, and fight for full compensation, whether through settlement or trial.
