Skillfully Addressing The Challenges Of Medical Malpractice Cases
Medical malpractice claims are uniquely challenging and different from other types of personal injury cases. Before even filing a medical malpractice lawsuit, you must secure a review by a medical panel to validate the claim. Medical malpractice claims are also subject to statutory damage caps that apply to both noneconomic and economic damages, which limit the total amount of compensation that can be awarded.
Robust medical evidence is foundational to the success of these cases. Allison knows how to secure the support of credible medical expert witnesses who can testify to the malpractice. She has the experience and resources to overcome the hurdles that can hinder medical malpractice claims.
