Although hospitals, doctors, nurses, and other health care providers are usually skilled and dedicated, they sometimes make unreasonable mistakes. Unlike most other mistakes, however, the consequences of a medical error can be devastating to a patient and their family.
When a health care provider makes an avoidable mistake that causes a patient’s injury or death, the patient or their family has a right under Illinois law to file a medical malpractice claim and collect compensation.
Medical malpractice claims are usually complicated and require experienced lawyers. Our team of Chicago medical malpractice lawyers and paralegals at The Horwitz Law Group have successfully handled dozens of medical malpractice cases. If we agree to handle your case, we work on a contingency fee basis and only get paid if you are awarded money.
