Cleveland Stroke Prevention Malpractice Lawyer
Ohio Stroke Treatment Malpractice Attorney
Medical Negligence and Stroke Prevention
The devastation from a stroke can be profound. Strokes can leave victims partially paralyzed, unable to speak clearly or walk on their own. Strokes can be fatal.
Was Your Stroke Preventable?
If they are diagnosed and treated in time, the damage from a stroke can sometimes be prevented or minimized. Clot-busting drugs called thrombolytics, such as TPA, play an essential role in stroke prevention. They can dissolve the clots that cause many strokes. There is a short window of opportunity to administer these drugs. When doctors fail to properly diagnose and treat stroke symptoms, patients pay the price.
The attorneys of Mishkind Law Firm Co., L.P.A., in Cleveland, represent people who suffered strokes that could have been prevented, or the damage limited, if medical providers had followed accepted standards of care for stroke prevention and treatment. If you or a member of your family arrived at the emergency room with symptoms of a stroke, but failed to receive proper treatment, you may have a medical malpractice claim.
Our lawyers will review your case to determine whether the doctor, nurse, hospital or other health care provider was negligent. The doctor may have ignored your symptoms or misinterpreted test results. The hospital pharmacy may have been out of a potentially life-saving stroke prevention drug, just when you needed it most.
With more than 80 years of combined legal experience and a long record of success, our lawyers have the ability to thoroughly assess your case and aggressively pursue full financial compensation for damages. We have access to highly respected neurosurgeons who are credible, honest and diligent. Their opinions can make a persuasive argument that medical malpractice did indeed occur.
