Medical Malpractice

Assisting Victims of Medical Malpractice in California

Our attorneys recognize that medical professionals can, like the rest of us, make mistakes in the care and treatment of their patients. The main difference is that their mistakes can cost a person their life or leave them to cope with a lifetime of disability and pain. It is unfortunate when those providing medical care for you or your loved ones are negligent. It is tragic when such negligence results in death. Fortunately, you have recourse.

To the average person, medical malpractice only exists when something goes severely wrong, such as surgical tools being left inside one's body. However, malpractice actually occurs when a doctor, nurse, or medical professional fails to follow established medical procedures or guidelines, thus injuring or sickening a patient. The lawyers at Hiepler & Hiepler are experienced in handling medical malpractice cases involving:

Prenatal Injuries
Incorrect Medication
Late Cancer Diagnosis
Nursing Home Abuse & Neglect
Hospital Negligence
Failure To Diagnose
Surgical Errors
Emergency Room Negligence
Ambulatory Negligence
Doctor / Nurse / Staff Negligence

If you or a loved one has been a victim of medical negligence in a California hospital or clinic, contact a lawyer at Hiepler & Hiepler. We have the capabilities and experience to help you recover and obtain just compensation.
