Seeking Justice After a Failure to Diagnose a Serious Health Condition
The failure to diagnose an illness or medical condition can cause you or your child significant, long-term hardships. You may face a loss of income and expensive medical bills while you recuperate, as well as life-long, painful medical treatments.
The Law Office of Steven R. Edmondson in Harris County can help you seek justice after a medical professional fails to diagnose a serious health condition. My law firm's goal is to identify negligence and prove liability so that you can receive suitable compensation.
My Medical Experience
Since 1990, I have been helping Houston-area families as a board-certified Obstetrician and Gynecologist (OB/GYN). I have successfully delivered thousands of babies while managing the health care of hundreds of women. I continue to treat patients, which keeps me current on approved standards or care, hospital procedures and insurance issues. As an attorney, I can leverage my medical knowledge when investigating and preparing your case.
Expert Testimony
As a lawyer, I also understand the importance of expert testimony. I consult with appropriate medical and financial experts to evaluate your case and provide expert opinions on your prognosis and future financial hardship. Expert testimony can provide a clearer picture of your pain, suffering and extensive medical needs to insurance companies and juries.
