The medical malpractice defense attorneys at Smith Haughey recognize that few experiences in an individual’s professional career can be as devastating as a medical malpractice lawsuit.
When faced with a lawsuit, health care professionals and providers seek competent, sensitive, and responsive legal help. That’s just what we do best. Our team of attorneys, legal assistants, and registered nurse consultants are exclusively devoted to serving as advocates for health care professionals.
We have successfully litigated thousands of medical malpractice cases over the past four decades. Our team possesses extensive medical knowledge, allowing us to quickly identify and understand the pertinent issues and then plan the most successful strategy for each case.
In addition, the firm has amassed one of the most extensive expert-witness databanks in the country. This enables us to efficiently select leading medical experts who will support our clients’ positions and bolster our defense by identifying the strengths and weaknesses of opposing witnesses.
To reduce the stress clients may experience, we explain complex legal issues and answer questions thoroughly. We also routinely provide public relations counsel so that our clients’ cases can be resolved without the glare of the media attention.
