OHIO LAWYERS FOR EMERGENCY ROOM ERRORS

Did You Suffer an Injury or a Wrongful Death in the Family Due to an ER Error?

When you’re seriously ill or injured, there’s often no other choice but to visit the emergency room. A hospital’s emergency room should be a place where you receive prompt medical care and an accurate diagnosis, but that’s not always the case. ER personnel tend to work under great stress and in a fast-paced and overcrowded environment, making an emergency room the perfect breeding ground for medical errors.


However, a chaotic ER environment should never excuse or justify medical negligence or malpractice. As an ER patient, you have the right to expect and receive the same high standard of care you are entitled to in any other healthcare setting.



If your visit to the ER has resulted in a disastrous medical error, consider reaching out to the Buckeye Law Group Inc.. Our skilled and knowledgeable medical malpractice attorneys have the resources and experience to help you receive fair compensation for your injuries.


The Most Common Emergency Room Errors

The most common emergency room errors include:

  • Misdiagnosis
  • Delay in treating a life-threatening condition
  • Triage errors
  • Failure to obtain a medical history
  • Failure to order appropriate tests
  • Errors in prescribing or dosing medication
  • Failure to provide follow-up instructions
  • Improper, incorrect or unnecessary medical procedure
  • Miscommunication between medical staff members


Proving an Emergency Room Error

For a medical malpractice case to be valid, you’ll need to prove your doctor’s negligent behavior caused your injuries. For example, if your treatment was delayed but you suffered no harm and were able to make a fully recovery from your medical condition, you may not have grounds for a medical malpractice claim.


On the other hand, if a doctor prescribed you the wrong medication which caused you to suffer dangerous side effects, you may have a compelling medical malpractice case.


Regardless of what went wrong during your ER visit if you suffered avoidable injuries or complications, the attorneys at Buckeye Law Group are here to help you right the wrong that’s been done to you.


We Work on a Contingency Fee Basis

Our attorneys work on a contingency basis. We understand how difficult it may be for injured victims burdened with medical bills to cover upfront legal costs. If you choose the Buckeye Law Group as your legal counsel, you’ll owe us nothing unless we can recover compensation in your personal injury case. This way, you won’t risk losing money if your claim falls through. You can also trust your medical malpractice lawyer to strive to maximize your claim value since their compensation will be directly linked to the recovery in your case.
