When trust in medi­cal care is shaken, kno­wing who to turn to can make all the dif­fe­rence.

Medi­cal negli­gence occurs when a doc­tor, ano­ther health­ca­re pro­fes­sio­nal or a medi­cal insti­tu­ti­on fails to meet the requi­red stan­dard of care, caus­ing harm to a pati­ent. We offer an initi­al assess­ment of your case, inclu­ding cases invol­ving medi­cal tre­at­ment across the Ita­li­an-Ger­man bor­der.

Are­as of Exper­ti­se

Typi­cal Medi­cal Negli­gence Cases

Every case requi­res a careful medi­cal and legal assess­ment.

Below are six are­as in which we fre­quent­ly recei­ve enqui­ries, hel­ping you iden­ti­fy the natu­re of your situa­ti­on.

Dia­gno­stic or Sur­gi­cal Errors

Delay­ed or incor­rect dia­gno­ses, impro­per­ly per­for­med sur­gi­cal pro­ce­du­res, com­pli­ca­ti­ons that were not trea­ted or com­mu­ni­ca­ted to the pati­ent (inclu­ding asym­me­tries, dis­ab­ling scars and loss of a chan­ce of reco­very).

Den­tal Negli­gence

Incor­rect­ly pla­ced implants, unsui­ta­ble den­tal pro­s­the­ses and ina­de­qua­te tre­at­ment plan­ning (inclu­ding implant fail­ure, ner­ve dama­ge and mal­oc­clu­si­on).

Tre­at­ment Errors and Medi­ca­ti­on-Rela­ted Negli­gence

Incor­rect pre­scrip­ti­ons, fail­ure to con­sider drug inter­ac­tions, and incom­ple­te or miss­ing infor­med con­sent.

Obste­tric Negli­gence and Birth Inju­ries

Delays in per­forming a caesare­an sec­tion, ina­de­qua­te moni­to­ring during labour and deli­very, hypo­xia or com­pli­ca­ti­ons that were not iden­ti­fied in time — cases that may requi­re mul­ti­di­sci­pli­na­ry expert assess­ments.

Ortho­pae­dics and Trau­ma­to­lo­gy

Ina­de­qua­te frac­tu­re fix­a­ti­on, errors in frac­tu­re reduc­tion and insuf­fi­ci­ent fol­low-up care after pro­ce­du­res invol­ving bones or joints.

Other Are­as

Pre­ven­ta­ble health­ca­re-asso­cia­ted infec­tions, ina­de­qua­te post­ope­ra­ti­ve moni­to­ring and other cli­ni­cal issues not lis­ted abo­ve.

Unfort­u­na­te­ly, the con­se­quen­ces of ina­de­qua­te medi­cal care do not always affect only the per­son who suf­fe­r­ed the inju­ry. Fami­ly mem­bers may also expe­ri­ence the con­se­quen­ces of medi­cal negli­gence. Under cer­tain cir­cum­s­tances, they may be entit­led to cla­im com­pen­sa­ti­on for finan­cial and non-finan­cial los­ses.

    Our Approach

    From the First Con­sul­ta­ti­on to
    the Out­co­me

    Every case requi­res a careful medi­cal and legal assess­ment and a tail­o­red legal approach.

    Our work typi­cal­ly invol­ves the fol­lo­wing steps:

    01.

    Initi­al Con­sul­ta­ti­on and Assess­ment

    Our aim is to under­stand your situa­ti­on and the impact of the harm you have suf­fe­r­ed, and to pro­vi­de you with the legal advice and repre­sen­ta­ti­on you need.

    We review the available docu­ments to assess the ext­ent of the inju­ries and the pro­s­pects of suc­cess of your case.

    02.

    Estab­li­shing the Medi­cal and Expert Basis for Your Cla­im

    We work with a net­work of spe­cia­list doc­tors and trus­ted medi­cal experts to assess and quan­ti­fy the harm you have suf­fe­r­ed.

    03.

    A Fair Reso­lu­ti­on — With as Litt­le Stress as Pos­si­ble

    We seek to resol­ve cases through nego­tia­ti­ons and out-of-court sett­le­ments whe­re­ver pos­si­ble, aiming to make the pro­cess as straight­for­ward and effi­ci­ent as pos­si­ble.

    If an ami­ca­ble reso­lu­ti­on can­not be rea­ched, we con­sider taking legal action.
