Medical Malpractice

Dedicated Connecticut medical injury lawyers

Each year in the United States nearly 100,000 people die because of medical errors that could have been prevented. Many more people are seriously and permanently injured as a result of medical malpractice. At Silver Golub & Teitell we are proud that cases brought by our attorneys have caused Connecticut hospitals to implement many changes in their procedures that are now preventing unnecessary injuries and deaths.

Our medical malpractice lawyers represent patients and families throughout Connecticut and in other states who have suffered catastrophic injuries or wrongful death due to medical errors and negligence, including the following:

• Failure to diagnose cancer or other serious diseases
• Misdiagnosis
• Medical negligence
• Misreading mammograms and X-rays
• Surgical errors, such as operating on the wrong side of the body, or accidentally removing healthy tissue and body parts
• Birth injuries, such as cerebral palsy or brain damage
• Medication and prescription drug errors
• Anesthesia errors, such as failure to respond promptly to changes in a patient's condition during surgery
• Failure to identify the signs of a heart attack or stroke
• Failure to treat
• Failure to monitor
• Spinal cord injuries caused during surgery
• Nursing home abuse and neglect

Committed to seeking justice

Our attorneys focus on helping the people who have suffered the most severe injuries due to medical malpractice. These cases are difficult and expensive to pursue, and require the experience and resources only a firm like ours can provide.

Our attorneys only bring a medical malpractice case when they have determined that a defendant's negligence is clear. Many times, patients suffer unfortunate outcomes that are no one's fault. If, after a thorough investigation, we find this to be the case, we help our clients understand what happened. We will never bring a medical malpractice case based solely on a bad outcome.

When negligence by a doctor or hospital is found, our attorneys focus their efforts first on finding out what went wrong, and then on developing the clearest way to explain it to a judge and jury.

We spare no expense in pursuing our clients' claims.  Our lawyers retain and consult with our carefully selected network of the most knowledgeable and independent expert witnesses from throughout the United States.  We also use focus groups and jury consultants to help us at trial.
