What Should People Look for in a Baltimore, MD, Medical Malpractice Attorney?

Malpractice cases are not easy, and they are not quickly resolved. When choosing a medical malpractice law firm to represent victims in severe malpractice cases, clients will need to consider the level of support they will get from their attorneys.

What the evidence shows: To provide the strongest representation for victims of catastrophic medical malpractice, we thoroughly investigate the facts of your case and have the medical knowledge to truly understand the evidence of negligence we discover in patients’ medical records, witness interviews, and laboratory results.
What treatment costs: Lawyers who represent clients injured by medical practitioners must understand the scope of patients’ current and future financial needs when it comes to their medical care. Our team also includes a network of trusted medical experts with the knowledge and experience to truly understand the scope of injuries and the level of care needed for such severe injuries.
What the damages add up to: Fighting for justice for medical malpractice victims in Baltimore is what we do. This means understanding what the financial impact of both economic and non-economic damages are when it comes to complex malpractice cases.

Taking on big insurance companies and even healthcare organizations is often expensive. An inexperienced, underfunded firm may push clients to take unfairly low settlements early in the legal process because they are not prepared to see through a big case. JJS has the resources to stay the course with victims and fight for maximum recovery.

How Can Janet, Janet & Suggs Help Victims of Medical Malpractice?

From the start, the team at Janet, Janet & Suggs works with victims to determine the extent of the injuries and the damages incurred as a result.

Medical expenses. Patients should not have to be responsible for medical bills that occur as a result of malpractice injuries. That includes emergency room visits, inpatient treatment and care, additional surgeries, and outpatient care. Malpractice claims also account for victims’ future expenses.
Loss of wages or earning capacity. Suffering injuries as a result of major malpractice affects victims’ ability to do their job, sometimes permanently, and victims can seek compensation for those lost wages.
Non-economic losses. The law gives victims of malpractice the right to seek financial compensation for these kinds of damages, and experienced attorneys know how to best calculate the amount of compensation to seek.
