The medical negligence attorneys at Moseley Collins Law understand the severe physical and emotional impact of a serious health care accident. We will take your case seriously and pursue maximum compensation on your behalf.
We have extensive experience representing victims of medical malpractice in Tacoma and throughout the state of Washington.

A successful claim will recover damages for your current and future medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering and other losses.
Misdiagnosis is one of the most common forms of medical malpractice in the United States. When a doctor fails to diagnose a patient correctly, it can lead to serious injuries and even death.
Injuries from misdiagnosis can include chronic illness, recurring conditions, permanent injury, or the loss of life. If you or a loved one has suffered from these types of harm, it is important to contact a Tacoma misdiagnosis lawyer as soon as possible.
A Tacoma Medical Practice Negligence Lawyers – Trusted Advocates requires a thorough investigation of all the facts of your case. This includes the type of healthcare facility in question, your doctor’s background and education, and the specific incident at hand. It also involves the review of all medical records related to your treatment, hospital and doctor’s notes immediately prior to the alleged negligence, as well as any other relevant documents and test results.
Your attorney will also consult with an appropriate expert to evaluate your claim, specifically for issues such as causation and damage. This is a crucial step in the process of establishing a case for negligence. For example, a surgeon may be held liable for an appendectomy mistake, but this doesn’t automatically mean you have a malpractice case unless your doctor failed to follow the applicable standard of care.
In addition to pursuing maximum compensation for your actual financial losses, our experienced Tacoma medical malpractice lawyers can seek punitive damages if the situation warrants. These additional funds are reserved for the most outrageous cases, where defendants exhibit especially reckless and flagrant misconduct that puts others at risk. For example, a manufacturer who sells products with known safety risks is more likely to be hit with these penalties than an 18-year-old who forgets to mop up a wet floor.
Injuries from car accidents, workplace incidents, or medical errors can be life-changing and debilitating. While a financial recovery cannot undo the harm that has been done, it can help cover quantified costs such as medical bills and lost income, as well as harder-to-quantify emotional damages for wrongful deaths or disabling injuries. Having an experienced Tacoma personal injury lawyer by your side can give you confidence, peace of mind and the best possible chance for success.
