Elsmere, Delaware Medical Malpractice Lawyer
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) | Surgical Errors | Medication Mistakes | Failure to Diagnose | Misdiagnosis
When you seek medical attention for an injury or illness, you expect that, at a minimum, your condition won’t get any worse because of the careless or negligent acts of a doctor, nurse or other caregiver. Unfortunately, as medicine focuses more on profit, the quality of care has continued to go down. Hospitals are routinely understaffed, and nurses and doctors are overworked and often under-trained. When you have a serious medical condition, the consequences can be devastating, even fatal. You need experienced and effective legal counsel to protect your rights. We can help.
At the office of Michael J. Hood, LLC, we have focused our practice on the needs of injured people in Delaware for more than three decades. We know the impact a serious personal injury can have on every aspect of your life. We don’t use a cookie-cutter approach, but take the time to identify the unique details of your case so we can formulate the most effective arguments to get full and fair compensation for all your losses. We will keep you fully informed of all developments in your case, as well as your options and likelihood of success, so you can make educated decisions about how you want to proceed.
To discuss your potential medical malpractice claim, contact our office online or call us at (302) 777-1000. There is no charge for your first visit.
